McAllister

Rem McAllister takes the job unwillingly. He is to lead an army mule-train loaded with gold across the desert from Mesquite Springs. With Clancy and the ruthless Franchon Gang on the rampage, and Gaton and his Apaches hunting white scalps, he doubts the shipment has much chance of arriving.

He turns out to be right. The mule-train is ambushed, the army escort is massacred, the gold is stolen and McAllister is wounded. He isn't surprised, only furious, and he sets out to take fast, hard revenge.
