Murderers, cutthroats, highwaymen, bushwhackers, robbers and killers all learn to fear Judge Rip Storm, a circuit riding judge in the territory of Wyoming. Dressed in his somber black frock coat and stovepipe hat, mounted on his horse, he’s a specter to evil-doers that their criminal days are numbered.
Storm will set up a courtroom just about anywhere, and he is not above bending the law if need be to bring bad men to justice, or appointing himself to a position in law enforcement for which he has no legal authority. It’s necessary. Otherwise, in Wyoming Territory, a wild wilderness, there would be no law.
In Book Two of the Six Gun and Law Book Western Series, Storm comes up against Dandelion “Big Dan” Stryker, a brutal, vicious, quick-tempered, quick triggered, hell-raising alcoholic killer. In a second case, Storm has to contend with a crooked U.S. Government Indian agent and his hired professional gunfighter, Jack Cutter.
Fast-paced action, wild gunfights in the most unlikely locales and roughneck characters are all here.
The character of Storm is (partly) based on the real-life great grandfather of the author (same name as the author), who served as a traveling judge and became one of the first Wyoming State Senators.
