New Sheriff in Town (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798306484228)

Southwest Kansas, 1873.

Sheriff Shire is killed in a showdown that is actually an ambush. His widow makes a dire declaration against the whole town that refused to back him. A curse?

The very next day begins a series of strange adventures with strange men applying for the job of sheriff.

The first man can draw a gun faster than the human eye can see. When he does, his own eyes glow like lanterns on a dark night.

The second man, at five feet tall, doesn't look big enough. But he proves himself beyond a doubt in a saloon brawl with a hulking drunk. Then out-of-town visitors bring strange rumors that he is indestructible. Is he?

The third man scarcely looks human and appears too small and frail to do anything. But his mind towers above others and can control everyone around him. He wants the job--and takes it.

Along with the usual mix of gunslingers, bank robbers, and other lawbreakers, a murderer is at large who keeps a discreet distance while watching with insane patience for days, even weeks, for the right opportunity to approach a victim. With all the distractions, can any of the sheriffs find and stop this subtle killer--before he kills them?

And can anything end the curse?
