Return to the Jumanes - Dave P Fisher - Bog

The destruction of Matt Travers' criminal empire, and the freeing of his captives, reverberated up and down the Rio Pecos. The poverty stricken Mexican villagers, who lived in fear of capture and sale to the slavers, were spreading the word about the 'Ten Men of Courage' who were fighting and overcoming this evil. This word spread into Mexico, to the empire of Vidal Castillo, a maniacal and sadistic tyrant. There three of Vidal Castillo's mercenary jefés plot his death, but too undermanned to carry out their plans, they enlist the aid of the Ten. Later, enroute to Santa Fe, more details about Nacio Fuentes emerge and they find that he is not the man they all thought him to be. While in Santa Fe, and unsure of the outcome of the Red River Ranch situation, Ace and Kip file on the land of the Jumanes Valley guaranteeing that they will have a home to return to. Then, a trip to San Antonio by Kip, Teague and Lon, reveals more about Ben Hawkins and the murder of Kip's father Arthur Nichols, forcing a confrontation with an unexpected outcome.
