Gunsight Showdown A Walt Slade Western

A RACE WITH DEATH! The mighty bridge crossing the Rio Grande was to be the final step in the completion of the railroad and the taming of the West. But when Ranger Walt Slade saw the plans, he knew there was a sinister enemy at work -- for the bridge was being built deliberately so that it would collapse at the first flood! Tracking his hidden adversary, facing ambush, arson, and dynamite blasts, the undercover ace of the Texas Rangers fights through until he and his quarry come face to face in a Gunsight Showdown.

Gold Dust and Blood -- a trail that led Ranger Ace Walt Slade straight to the Cap Rock country and a gun-blazing showdown with the craftiest owlhoot in Texas.

Walt Slade rides back to Echo, Texas -- the scene of a past showdown -- to find he must challenge a new and deadlier desperado gang!

Ghosts range -- fearsome figures in gleaming armor, spirits of the conquistadores -- are striking terror into the herdsmen of Texas' Matagorda Bay country.... But maybe, a skeptical Slade told himself, they're not ghosts -- just smart owlhoots wrapped in tin plate.... So the Ranger ace went "ghost"-hunting -- with hot lead and fighting fury! But Slade didn't know how close he himself would come to being made a ghost....

Blanca had died in a gun battle during which Slade had followed the bandit leader across the Rio Grande into Mexico. But now someone was trading on Blanca's sinister reputation and cashing in. Slade had the job of tracking down the killer.

Miles out of Laredo, Walt Slade saw the flash of a giant explosion. The Ranger spurred down the trail to investigate. Suddely 5 horsemen rocketed into view - and Slade had to hurl himself sideways as a hail of leaden death smashed toward him.

"This Town's Gone Bad -- We'll Build a New One!"

One by one they faced him. One by one they died... Only four hours after Walt Slade landed in Los Angeles, he was locked in a desperate life-and-death struggle with the gang of killers he had trailed over a thousand miles. One by one they faced him. One by one they died--until at last he was up against the vicious, deadly remnants whose orders from their leader were-- "KILL SLADE-ANY WAY YOU CAN!"
