Saints and Sinners - Peter Brandvold - Bog

When Jeremiah Claggett, constable of the nearby ghost town of Fury, is murdered by Frank Lord, the kill-crazy leader of a dozen wild outlaws, Bloody Joe has to come to grips with the fact that he's inadvertently to blame. Mannion had turned Frank's brother, Billy, over to Claggett for safekeeping, setting off the chain of events that end his friend's life. Mannion is the kill-crazy one now. Not realizing he's being shadowed by Clagget's beautiful, half-wild granddaughter, Justy, and an inscrutable saddle tramp, Mannion sets out on his vengeance quest. In typical Bloody Joe style, he storms Lord's gang single-handedly, which nearly proves to be his undoing--until he's set upon by a mystery 'Man of the Lord' and given... something. Whether that something is good or bad Mannion has difficulty discerning.
