Master of Triggernometry
(1981)(The Trigger Master)
(Book 41 in the Floating Outfit series)A novel by J T Edson
The last thing Daniel 'Bull' Keleney wanted was for the children of Grattan, Texas, to receive an education. Being a ruthless man, he was willing to go to any lengths to prevent it - he had already forced every schoolteacher who had arrived to leave Grattan, and had arranged the murder of the latest one during what appeared to be a robbery.
And when he saw the insignificant looking young couple who arrived as replacements, the town boss felt sure that they would be easier to drive out than any of their predecessors. But that was the biggest mistake of Bull Keleney's life, for the girl's real name was Betty Hardin, and her companion was her cousin, the master of triggernometry - Dusty Fog!
J. T. Edson was a former British Army dog-handler who wrote more than 130 Western novels, accounting for some 27 million sales in paperback. Edson's works - produced on a word processor in an Edwardian semi at Melton Mowbray - contain clear, crisp action in the traditions of B-movies and Western television series. What they lack in psychological depth is made up for by at least twelve good fights per volume. Each portrays a vivid, idealized "West That Never Was", at a pace that rarely slackens.
Genre: Western
