Duke Benedict and Hank Brazos were finally closing in on the man they’d sworn to kill; the same man whose gang of cutthroats had massacred innocent men by the hundreds throughout the late Civil War. And Bo Rangle knew it. So he figured to dig up the fortune in Confederate gold he’d stolen at the Battle of Pea Ridge and then high-tail it to Mexico. If anyone got in his way … well, that was going to be their hard fortune.
But still Benedict and Brazos kept coming. They survived ambushes, shootouts, a terrifying white-water ride through the Lizard River and still kept after their quarry.
And yet there was something in them that almost hoped they wouldn’t catch up to him.
Because when they did, when Rangle lay stone-cold dead at their feet, there was another battle each man would have to face.
They were going to have to gunfight each other!
E. Jefferson Clay was just one of many pseudonyms used by New South Wales-born Paul Wheelahan (1930-2018). Starting off as a comic-book writer/illustrator, Paul created The Panther and The Raven before moving on to a long and distinguished career as a western writer. Under the names Emerson Dodge, Brett McKinley, E. Jefferson Clay, Ben Jefferson and others, he penned more than 800 westerns and could, at his height, turn out a full-length western in just four days.
The son of a mounted policeman, Paul initially worked as a powder monkey on the Oaky River Dam project. By 1955, however, he was drawing Davy Crockett—Frontier Scout. In 1963 he began his long association with Australian publisher Cleveland Pty. Co. Ltd. As prolific as he was as a western writer, however, he also managed to write for TV, creating shows like Runaways and contributing scripts to perennial favorites like A Country Practice. At the time of his death, in December 2018, he was writing his autobiography, Never Ride Back … which was also the title of his very first western.
