ONE SON. ONE LEGENDARY SHERIFF. ONE DANGEROUS MISSION TO SAVE HIS FATHER’S HONOR.
Eighteen-year-old Lee Thompson has traveled from Texas to Wolf River, Montana, to reunite with the father he barely knows. Instead, he finds Sheriff Diehard Thompson—once the toughest lawman in the territory—growing older as outlaws, cattle rustlers and desperadoes descend on the town, convinced the aging sheriff no longer has the strength to stop them.
Lee refuses to stand by while his father’s reputation—and perhaps his life—are destroyed. Since Diehard doesn’t recognize the son he hasn’t seen since childhood, Lee devises a daring plan. He’ll infiltrate the outlaw gang from within, risking discovery and death to uncover their plans, protect the town and restore the rule of law before Wolf River falls into the hands of ruthless criminals.
Filled with undercover danger, blazing gunfights, horseback action, memorable villains and the powerful bond between father and son, Under the Diehard Brand is a fast-paced Western where courage, loyalty and determination earn a legendary name.
Three complete Western adventures in one volume. The adventure continues with Hoss
Tamer, where an ex-circus horse trainer uses remarkable skill and quick thinking to stop the Gopher Hole Gang’s daring Wells Fargo robbery, and The Ghost Town Gun-Ghost, where an eccentric old prospector and a young gunslinger join forces to outwit a gang of desperate outlaws in an abandoned mining town.
