A Novella by Charles Ray
The forty-eighth Caleb Johnson adventure from Charles Ray!
Frank Butler, a drifter and wanted outlaw, stops in Bear Creek. He decides to rob the general store and then, without provocation, kills the owner and flees. Bear Creek’s lawman, Ned Walker, asks Caleb Johnson to go after the man who is out of his jurisdiction. This begins a long chase as Caleb tracks the man north through Colorado and up into Wyoming, encountering other obstacles along the way, until he finally confronts him east of Cheyenne.
A cold-blooded killer, Butler is not the type to give up easily, and Caleb is not the type to kill a man, even a wanted murderer, unless there’s no other choice. Caleb uses all his wits and skill in a final standoff to capture his man and keep his moral code intact.
