LAW IN A LAWLESS LAND It's often been said that the only law in the West was a gun, and that outlaws rode unchecked over anyone unlucky enough to stand in their way. But as these two classic short novels by Lauran Paine show, there were courageous men willing to risk their lives to tame the Wild West. "Lawman" is the story of Boyd Dylan, the newly appointed deputy sheriff of Santa Maria, who runs into trouble when his boss, Sheriff Rensberg, doesn't want him to disturb the status quo. In "The Dark Trail," Will Brennan is a deputy sheriff and bounty hunter ordered to bring in the Verde River Kid for bank robbery--but the man he arrests isn't exactly a stranger. When lawmen and outlaws clash there's sure to be excitement, and no one could capture it on paper better than Lauran Paine!
