USA Today best-selling author and Pulitzer nominee Ralph Cotton writes thundering westerns. In Guns of Wolf Valley, CC Ellis is a long rider—a cool-headed gunslinger with a reputation known far and wide. When he’s ambushed by a group of four trappers, he manages to blast two before being severely wounded and left for dead. Still alive, he’s found by a boy whose mother will need his help fighting-off the malicious advances of a corrupt and sadistic preacher named Jessup.
