Slocum And The Schuylkill Butchers

More information to be announced soon on this forthcoming title from Penguin USA

Slocum’s up against some really sharp characters… Between the Civil War and his travels on the frontier, John Slocum has seen his share of brutality. But nothing could have prepared him for witnessing the mutilation of a posse at the hands of more than two dozen knife- and cleaver-wielding killers. They’re known as the Schuylkill Butchers. They’ve been rustling cattle, robbing stagecoaches, and massacring the residents of Sharpesville, Montana. And now Slocum’s going to show them a slice of life they’ll never forget…

Something big is about to go off… When a dirt-broke Slocum finds a strongbox full of cash beside a Texas stream, he thinks his luck might have finally turned. But it’s really just his bad luck turned worse. Next thing Slocum knows, he’s being bushwhacked by cavalrymen, chased by Rangers, seduced by a preacher’s daughter, and coming face-to-face with a demon from his own past—the murderous Rebel Jack Holtz…

Saloon owner Matt Barstow is a gambling man--and his winnings have made him rich and powerful. He's also a cheating man. Even though he and his men have the Gunsmith outnumbered, all bets are on the lawman.
