Hell with a Gun

A brutal encounter with a tough cowhand made Elton Collins a renowned gunfighter before his twentieth birthday, but it wasn’t until the dime novel Hell With A Gun was written about him that he became a full-fledged legend. However, Elton Collins had no desire to be the man against whom other gunfighters chose to measure themselves. He changed his name, slipped away to his own corner of the world, and settled down to raise a family. After many years of solitude, he thought he’d left his deadly past behind. But the past refused to forget him. When a deadly attack leaves his family in tatters and his daughter missing, Elton Collins is forced to become the only man he truly fears: his former self.

Recommended to anyone enjoying a good western. Held my interest to the very end. Well written and looking forward to reading another western by Michael Shepherd.

Gram L

Upholding the conventions of a classic 19th century American Western, Hell with a Gun: The Legend of Elton Collins is a well-written book about love, loss, heroism, and one’s will to survive.
