AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'At first glance, Shane Preston and Jonah Jones were an odd pair — one a lean, quiet gunfighter, the other a feisty old-timer running to fat. But they were united in the cause of finding the man who killed Shane's wife. To find the culprit, Shane Preston hired out his gun, hoping each job would bring him closer ... closer to justice ... First in an exciting western series, from the archives of Australia's legendary Cleveland Publishing!

'Gun Law at Hangman’s Creek

'When Hangman’s Creek hired Shane and Jonah to clean out the lawless element, it seemed like a pretty straightforward job. But neither man reckoned on just how ruthless Leif Murphy could be … and his army of gunslingers!

'Two Guns to Apache Wells

'Rebecca Donnell’s father hired Shane and Jonah to find his daughter. The gunfighters learned her stage had been robbed by the Long Knife Gang. Rebecca had recognized one of the gang members — and now she was scheduled to die by hanging!'

Two Guns to Apache Wells, Cole Shelton , single work novel western

'Rancher’s daughter Rebecca Donnell was sentenced to death after recognizing one of the men who robbed the stage she was travelling on. Her father knew only that she had vanished off the face of the earth, so he hired the only two men he felt could possibly find her – or her body… Shane Preston and Jonah Jones.

'The two gunfighters rode into the wilderness with no guarantees of success, but once they took a man’s money they never quit a job until it was complete. First they found the missing stagecoach, or what was left of it. Then they found three shallow graves…

'Their quest should have ended there. But the lean gunfighter and his crusty old companion knew they wouldn’t rest until they settled with the killers themselves, the so-called Long Knife Gang.

'Meanwhile, there was a pack of renegades on their trail, determined to capture and torture them for shooting their chief’s kill-crazy son. There was no turning back for Shane and Jonah. They were caught smack in the middle of two bands of killers who were both set on taking their scalps!'
