Description
West of New Mexicos Pecos, men called him the Cholla Kid - a dashing cowboy with a devil-may-care air and a merry twinkle in his gray eyes that could grow steely. His skylarking, however, brought trouble in his wake and he decided it best to drift from his home range for a while. Then trouble began in earnest. In the Comal Valley he rode into more of it than he had ever imagined could come to one wandering cowboy in search of adventure. He found Hondo, the desert cowtown of far-flung ill repute, rightly named, when he was framed for bushwhacking and robbery; the killing of the father of the only girl he had ever met whose voice could twang his heart strings. And for Sannas sake, for her revenge on the evil doers, he fought single-handed battles that are a lurid tale, swift enough in fiery action, wild adventure and absorbing interest to satisfy the most rabid of Western fans. Men died swiftly and without warning in the bullet-torn Comal Valley. Yet for the sake of one wistful-eyed, sorrowing girl, the Cholla Kid was willing to champion the short-odds end of an ugly range war - and to come out triumphant.
