Todhunter Ballard

This is the story of one man, Vance Clark, who rode into someone else's range war, and suddenly found himself fighting a whole army of renegades. But he took the side of the man who had shown him kindness and understanding, going against the man who taught him everything he knows.

Jet Cosgrave comes back to his home after five years, brooding over the loss of his father's ranch to his smooth-talking Uncle Lin. He hires a crew tough enough to match Lin's own gang of killers. Not only does Jet have to fight his own uncle, but there are also the Polsens, the hill people who hate Jet almost as much as Lin. Matters are further complicated by the two women in his life.
