Quick on the Draw

Glenister McCreedie was never a lucky man.

Imprisoned for a crime he never committed, deserted by the woman he loved and betrayed by his own family.

His bad luck seems to be running out when he is released early from prison and finds a job on the railroads.

But it doesn’t last long.

First he gets into a fight with a man who turns up dead.

Then, while still on the run, his train is held up by his own brother’s gang.

Then he somehow manages to offend the railroad boss’ daughter, the beautiful Elizabeth.

With the fates out to get him, Glen has to use all his wits and strength to take control of his own destiny.

Will that be enough to see him through, or will his past catch up with him before he gets a chance?

Quick on the Draw is a hard fighting story of the Old West, where lives were cheap and danger was great.

Gordon Landsborough (1913-1984) was a publisher, author and bookseller. Writing tales about the exploits of gun-toting cowboys fighting out on the arid sands of the Wild West, Landsborough was himself a pioneering in the English paperback publishing world of the 1950s. He was widely known amongst his peers as the ‘maverick publishing genius’.
