Outlaws of the West #43
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free# "Robbers' Roost" The outlaw gang flees their hideout in the Black Hills after a robbery and makes their way to Robbers' Roost, a remote hideaway in the hills that serves as a natural fortress beyond the jurisdiction of any lawmen. After studying wanted posters and brand records of local ranches, they devise a plan to steal livestock from the large ranches in the area. Three days later, a stage is attacked near Palo Nevada, but the gang learns one of their men, Monk Foster, has been shot and must be left behind; however, a bank teller later identifies him as Orden, a man who disappeared three years ago after the old man he lived with died.
Adam Black, the West's most feared bounty hunter, takes on the trail of Danny Mays, a bank robber who robbed his hometown and made a personal enemy of Sheriff Sam Copeley. As Black closes in relentlessly, Mays flees across the frontier, driven by terror and desperation, with every mile bringing the hunter closer—and the fugitive's nerves closer to breaking.
Jed Cooper's ruthless outlaw gang rules the impregnable heights of Robber's Roost in Wyoming's Black Hills, striking stages, trains, and banks with seeming impunity—but their fortress sanctuary proves no match for the relentless toll of gunplay, ambition, and betrayal that tears the band apart from within. As members fall to lead and horseshoes alike, and new guns arrive seeking power, Cooper faces a reckoning that will determine whether the gang can survive their own nature.
When a rustling operation plagues Nevada ranches, the Cattleman's Association sends their best stock detective—Chuck Martin—undercover to infiltrate the criminals responsible. Martin poses as a drifter and manages to land work at the McCoy Ranch, but he finds himself caught between duty and an unexpected connection with Nan McCoy, the rancher's daughter, even as her father's true nature begins to surface.
Luke Orden drifted into outlaw life as a member of Monk Foster's gang, but when a bank robbery goes wrong and Luke takes a bullet, he stumbles onto a quiet ranch where Amy Mason and her son Jerry nurse him back to health—and where he finds himself dreaming of a different life. When Monk tracks him down and demands Luke join one last heist, the young outlaw must choose between the loyalty that binds him to the gang and the chance at redemption he's found in that little valley.
