Merlin Fanshaw, Book 6

By: Stan Lynde

Narrated by: Stan Lynde

Sheepman Abel McKenzie and cattleman Zack Rainford were once the best of friends, but are now, in 1887 Montana Territory, mortal enemies. Their escalating feud threatens to throw the people of Meriwether County into a bloody range war. Three ranchers have already been killed, and the investigation into the homicides received only cursory review. One of those three men was McKenzie's employee. Deputy United States Marshal Merlin Fanshaw is sent to investigate and enforce the law.

Shortly after his arrival in Meriwether County, Deputy Fanshaw's assignment is complicated by the activities of a corrupt sheriff, a mysterious range detective, and a clandestine romance between the shepherd's son and the cattleman's daughter. Deputy Fanshaw accepts the burden of their secret and becomes an ally to the young lovers. If the two young people get married, it could help unite the feuding families, or it could light the fuse on the lethal powder keg. With conditions in the area becoming more strained, the McKenzie and Rainford homes become armed camps, with malice running rampant between the cowhands and sheepherders. Can Deputy Fanshaw prevent any further bloodshed? What will it take for him to put an end to the Meriwether County War?

VENDETTA CANYON

This is another great book about Merlin Fanshaw. These are the best books I've came across in a while. Plus this is one of my favorite storylines. Ridgeway which is Merlins Boss sends him to Meriwether county in Montana to help try to stop a range war thats starting. Its cattle men against sheeo men. Merlin has to stay within the law. I wish he would have done things different but he is a Marshall and is limited to what he can do. This is a good story. Stan Lynde does a great job narrating this book.
