The Loner 5

The town was called Gentle Creek ... but by the time Blake Durant was finished with it, its waters ran red with blood.A land-hungry cattle baron called Jay Lucien ruled the town with a fist of iron. Anyone who didn't bow to his will was dealt with by gunfighter Rudy Dillen and his army of hardcases.Blake was just passing through when he witnessed the cold-blooded beating of a kid who had the nerve to ask Lucien to settle a debt. When he took the boyor what was left of himback home, he figured he'd done all he could. But there was no way he could ride on. His sense of justice just wouldn't allow it. Someone had to bring Jay Lucien down. But Blake was tough, he was determined, and he was lightning-fast with a gun.So he declared war on the bad men.All-out war.
