Larramee's Ranch. Max Brand

The charge was murder – and now Tom Holden had big trouble on his hands. First, he'd held off the town bully, big Crogan, and his men single-handedly. Then he announced he would marry Alexa Larrame, beautiful blue-eyed daughter of the wealthiest rancher around – even though he'd never even met her! <P> But now he had a lot more than just a rash promise to live up to. He was being accused of murder in a town where the strong make the laws – and enforce them with bullets! <P> “No pulp writer was more prolific than Frederick Faust, who wrote nearly 15 million words under the pen name of Max Brand and seventeen others. He sold all his stories and sometimes wrote complete issues of Western Story Magazine.” – The Incredible Pulps
