Shooting To Kill

Shooting to Kill sees three of Gordon Landsborough’s bestselling westerns brought together for the very first time in this action-packed, gun-slinging collection.

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 and whilst 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…

THE FIGHTING COWBOY

Steve Blondel is better known throughout the West as El Cougar – the fighting cowboy.

An unbeatable force, he’s winning competitions nationwide and earning a reputation for his skills in the ring.

As the first fighting cowboy to come out of the West, Blondel is quickly becoming the one to beat.

Huge bets are placed on his success and people travel far and wide to watch him in action.

But his career is suddenly interrupted when he learns of the disappearance of his brother, who has mysteriously vanished whilst enroute to a fight.

However, it’s not long before Blondel realizes that his brother has been murdered by a gang of vicious train robbers, and his body tossed into the nearby canyon.

Blondel vows vengeance, and locates the prime suspects of the attack – the infamous Morton family – who will stop at nothing to get what they want...

BATTLE AT BROKEN KNEE

Trouble always seems to find Careless O’Connor.

But when he comes across a wrecked wagon off a lonely Texan trail, dangerously close to the volatile Mexican border, he has little premonition that this chance encounter will change his life forever.

Lying amongst the debris of shattered wagon wheels and dead horses is the woman who will turn Careless’ world upside down.

Little did he know the plight of Grace Whitfield, with her blue eyes, blonde curls and fierce desire to avenge the ruthless imprisonment of her brother, was going to lead Careless on many an adventure – both in the harsh desert and in his heart.

Battling against terrifying odds, Careless and his crew – the beautiful Grace, brave young Yippee Clay, honest Burt and dastardly Big Mouth – struggle on in their quest for justice.
