The hangman's noose is calling...
Toby Small's brother has been wrongly accused of the murder of a US marshal.
But Toby is determined to prove his brother's innocence by tracking down the real killer.
It's not long before Toby realises that his search for truth is more dangerous than he bargained for, especially when Carver, the foreman of the Crooked L ranch, goes for his gun.
Yet Toby's investigations only seem to churn up more questions that need answering - why does rancher Harknett shy away from the public eye so much. and who is the mysterious prisoner trapped in the canyon?
Help is at hand in the form of the feisty Ella, and Ray, a young man looking for adventure.
But with time running out and the situation becoming more dangerous by the second, can Toby track down the real killer before it's too late?
Or has Toby's sniffing around earned him nothing more than a one-way ticket to the gallows?
One things for sure, when it's all over even Ray will have quenched his thirst for danger and violence.
With tensions rising and bullets flying, Shadow of the Noose will transport you right back to the unforgiving wild west. The perfect read for fans of Louis L'Amour.
