In these extraordinary stories, we meet a man who is forced to defend himself by taking another’s life - and must pay for his actions in a most punishing manner; a young thrill-seeker who finally finds a place he can call home, and vows to stay there - regardless of the man who tries to stand in his way; and a drifter who honors a deathbed promise to a stranger by embarking on an unlikely mission of mercy.

Trust was rare and precious in the wide-open towns that sprung up like weeds on America's frontier - with hustlers and hucksters arriving in droves by horse, coach, wagon, and rail, and gunmen working both sides of the law, all too eager to end a man's life with a well-placed bullet. The New York Times best-selling grand master of suspense deftly displays the other side of his genius, with seven classic Western tales of destiny and fatal decision...and trust as essential to survival as it is hard-earned.

Editorial reviews
Roy Bean’s Gold is the story of Roy Bean’s adventures as a young man in the Wild West. His life is uprooted when he shoots a Mexican lover’s jealous ex-boyfriend. This sets the tone for his adventures that include more guns, senoritas, and, of course, a taste for gold. Maxwell Glick performs the character of Roy, who narrates the story, as a young man, somewhat green around the gills but self-sure and ready for adventure. If you’re a fan of westerns and are looking for some quick, fun entertainment that you won't want to walk away from you will enjoy this tall tale full of chili powder, gun powder, and gold dust.
Publisher's summary
He was to be a legend of the southwest once he became known as Judge Roy Bean, but here is the story of his early days as a 23-year-old who chased women and gold in 1849 California. Roy, on the hunt for treasure, is also in the sights of a vicious bandit and two femme fatales.
