So he refuses arrogant Omaha financier Fergus O'Callaghan's money but rides the trouble-busting trail to Nebraska's Sandhills anyhow. In that country are his dead wife's brother Tom Holley, a tenderfoot deputy sheriff unversed in the frontier's wicked ways, and beautiful Ruth Swain, plucky widow of a murdered homesteader. Both are up against the odds and Joshua is set to fight for them - but a drygulcher's bullet pushes him to death's brink... \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Chap O'Keefe takes a traditional Western plot and as usual spins it into something more with clever plot twists, well-developed and interesting characters, and plenty of tough, hardboiled action scenes. Joshua Dillard has turned into one of my favorite Western characters. Although he's fast with a gun and can handle himself just fine in a fistfight, he's hardly a superman, but rather a flawed but determined man trying to make his way on a brutal frontier... \u003cem\u003eThe Sandhills Shootings\u003c\/em\u003e is one of Chap O'Keefe's early novels and the third published to feature Joshua Dillard...
