Death on the Texas Range
(1992)(The third book in the Texas Trails series)
A novel by Patrick E Andrews
Trouble was ridin’ high in Stavanger, Texas and his name was Erickson. With guns blazing and killing in their hearts, Ace and a gang of outlaws took over the dusty cowtown, lock, stock and law man. Holed up and sitting pretty, Ace commenced a spree of rustlin’ and robbin’ clean across Denton County until no spread was safe. And any decent man with gumption enough to call them out got a bellyful of lead and a pine box for his trouble...until the likes Texas Ranger Captain Charlie Delano rode into town.
The governor had ordered the veteran lawman to clean up Denton County by putting Erickson behind bars and Delano aimed to do just that. Teaming with Guy Tyrone and Gideon Magee, two of the orneriest peace officers ever to pack a Ranger star, Delano cut a road of blood clean to Ace’s door. Outnumbered by the owlhoot army, with odds fadin’ faster than the Rangers could reload, Delano reckoned there was one way to bring law and order back to Stavanger. Standing tall, he walked out in the open, ready to face Erickson alone in deadly showdown only one man could win!
Patrick Andrews was born in Oklahoma in 1936 into a family of pioneers who participated in its growth from the Indian Territory and Oklahoma Territory to statehood. His father’s family were homesteaders and his mother's cattle ranchers. Consequently, he is among the last generation of American writers who had contacts with those people from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Patrick’s wife Julie says he both speaks and writes with an Oklahoma accent.
He is an ex-paratrooper, having served in the 82nd Airborne Division in the active army and the 12th Special Forces Group in the army reserves. Patrick began his writing career after leaving the army. He and his better half presently reside in southern California. He has a son Bill, who is an ex-paratrooper and a probation officer, and two grandchildren.
Among his many books, Piccadilly Publishing is pleased to be reissuing ebook editions as mini-series and stand alones, including: The Long-Knives, The Dragoons, Texas Trails, Indian Territory.
