Boom Town Killer

by J. R. Roberts

Overview

When someone begins killing young "ladies of the night" in the town of Dante, it's bad for business--particularly that of Colonel Porter, the local mining czar. If the killer isn't stopped soon, the town of Dante may turn into a ghost town--and its mines with it! The Gunsmith has a score to settle with whoever's been cutting the throats of the young women, and he aims to find out who it is. It won't be easy, though. He has a town full of suspects, including a sadistic sheriff, the jealous wife of a prominent banker, and a gun-slinger intent on drawing Clint into a showdown...
