Johnstone Country. Where its never quiet on the Western front. Life on the straight and narrow is easier said than done for a pair of crooks like Jimmy Slash Braddock and Melvin Pecos Kid Baker. But these reprobates are doing their damnedest to make an honest go of it. Theyve managed to safely deliver a church organ to a mountain parish when their sometime employer--Chief U.S. Marshal Luther T. Bleed-m-So Bledsoe--recruits them for a job only fools would take. Marshal Bledsoe wants them to pick up a shipment of gold in the mining town in the Sawatch Mountains. Heres the catch: Slash and Pecoss wagon is just a decoy. When a ruthless gang ambushes the real gold shipment, its up to Slash and Pecos to go after the trigger-happy bandits. And they wont be alone. A lady Pinkerton, Hattie Friendly--who is anything but--survived the ambush and is hellbent on getting the gold back. Even if she has to team up with a pair of ornery old cutthroats like Slash and Pecos. . . . The Cutthroats are back. The bad guys are history. Live Free. Read Hard.
