Slocum S Deadly Game

Slocum rides with the legend… John Slocum has plenty of bad memories from the Civil War. Now, one of them has returned: Jesse James--who rode alongside Slocum under Bill Quantrill. Jesse and his gang have a big score, and they want Slocum to come in with them. But this time it's not gold or cash in their sights. This time, they're going to make their own damned country…

Slocum stumbles into a deadly family feud… Along the seamy San Francisco waterfront, Slocum is on the hunt for Michael Porges, whose wealthy father wants the young man found and herded back home. But when he rescues his quarry from being shanghaied, only to stand helpless as the youth is gutshot, Slocum figures that there is much more to this than just a father-son tiff. From Michael’s domineering father and dangerously deceptive wife, to his sweetly seductive sister, this family has a barrel full of secrets covered by a blanket of lies. And now, Slocum will learn more about them than he ever wanted to—if he lives long enough to find out the truth…

"If there's one thing John Slocum likes more than whiskey or women, it's winning big in poker. Until a cheater runs off with his money and is killed, getting Slocum arrested for murder. His neck is saved when a British beauty named Abigail Cheswick springs him from jail--and into the folds of her skirt. Soon, he's at the Cheswick camp and Abigail's brother, the arrogant Lord William, wants him to catch wild game worthy of mounting on his royal walls. But once Slocum discovers what the prey is, he decides to play the game by his own rules."--Page 4 of cover.
