THE TRANSPORT: Fortieth in a Series of Jess Williams Westerns (A Jess Williams Western Book 40)

Jess is on his way to Laredo, on the hunt for the murderous thug Chuck Barker. Shortly after he arrives, his old friend John Bodine shows up wearing his United States Marshal’s badge. He has two other marshals with him and their assignment is to transport three of the deadly Weston gang to San Antonio for a hanging.

Jess reluctantly agrees to accompany them. Three of the other Weston gang members, led by Billy Weston, successfully attacks the jail wagon. One of the marshals Bodine brought with him is killed and the other is hanging onto life by a thread.

The hunt is on as Jess and Bodine team up again to track down the six members of the Gang, who don’t make it any easier after they split up, three of them riding west and three riding north. But Jess isn’t one to give up once he’s committed, and this time is no exception.
