Baron of Crime

by J. R. Roberts

Overview

THE OBESE OUTLAW

When Clint Adams's old friend Detective Talbot Roper invites him to Denver, Colorado, to help out on a case, how can he refuse? For three years a series of robberies has besieged the southwest, and Roper believes they're all being perpetrated by a single mastermind. Clint's job is to devise a trap to catch the bandits in the act, and to outsmart their nefarious boss.

Unknown to the Gunsmith, his adversary is Henry "Fat Gator" Miller. He made a fortune dealing in Texas cattle, but prefers the challenge of running an outlaw gang. He knows Roper is on his trail--but before he can snuff out the snooper, he'll have to deal with the Gunsmith...
