SHOOT ANGEL!

The day Frank Angel shows up in Liberty he's looking for Harry Culp, a man on the run. Angel doesn't realize he's walking into a dangerous situation that has nothing to do with Culp. The threat comes from the corrupt Judge Cranford and the town sheriff, Sherman.
When Angel steps in to help a young woman he's arrested and falsely accused and sentenced to six-months hard labor in the prison camp run by Cranford and his brutal henchmen. It's too late for Culp, who is already dead, and Cranford believes he has everything neatly under control.
But he and his bunch don't realize who they have in their midst.
Frank Angel is an undercover operative, and not a man you want against you. Beaten and framed, Angel is about to fight back and it's already too late for the sadistic Cranford and his crew.
Angel is mad and getting madder by the minute. What he discovers at the camp only adds fuel to the fire, and when Angel starts to burn, anything that stands in his way is going to be razed to the ground.
Hell has nothing on Frank Angel when he makes his final stand ... and Liberty will never forget that day!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Frederick Nolan, a.k.a. 'Frederick H. Christian', was born in Liverpool, England and was educated there and at Aberaeron in Wales. He decided early in life to become a writer, but it was some thirty years before he got around to achieving his ambition. His first book was The Life and Death of John Henry Tunstall, and along the way he became an authority on the history of the American frontier, founder of The English Westerners' Society, and something of a connoisseur of western fiction in the days when it was a flourishing literary genre.

In addition to the Angel westerns, Fred also wrote five entries in the popular 'Sudden' series started by Oliver Strange. Among his numerous books is the best-selling The Oshawa Project (published as The Algonquin Project in the US) which was later filmed by MGM as Brass Target, starring Sophia Loren, John Cassavetes, Max von Sydow, George Kennedy, and Robert Vaughn.

A leading authority on the outlaws and gunfighters of the Old West, he has scripted and appeared in many television programs both in England and in the United States, and authored numerous articles in historical and other academic publications. His award-winning books on Southwestern frontier history include The Life and Death of John Henry Tunstall (1965), The Lincoln County War: A Documentary History (a New York Times 'Book of the Year' in 1992), Bad Blood: The Life and Times of the Horrell Brothers (1994), The West of Billy the Kid (1998), an annotated edition of Pat Garrett's Authentic Life of Billy the Kid (2000), and a popular introduction to the history of the frontier, The Wild West: History, Myth and the Making of America, published in 2003.
