 Gunsmoke Mountain

Owen G. Irons

When Wyoming rancher Amos Corbett's daughter is abducted, Dan Featherskill is offered the job of finding her. A skilled mountain man, Dan turns down the job when Corbett demands that he also kill Celia's abductor. Two hardcases are set upon the trail, but when they threaten the ranch of Deucie Campbell, the mountain girl who once loved Dan, he has to take a hand. And then a winter storm grips Shadow Mountain and all hell breaks loose across the timberland.

All is not as it seems in this Owen G. Irons entry from the Black Horse Westerns line. When Corbett’s daughter is abducted, the job of bringing her back—along with an $800 fee—is offered to Dan Featherskill. But Featherskill refuses, leaving Corbett to hire a pair of killers instead.

Featherskill’s path leads him into the mountains, not in pursuit of the missing girl, but to confront a looming threat against a woman from his past, Ducie Campbell. From there, the story twists and turns like a river, each bend revealing new dangers.

Irons delivers a suspenseful western that keeps readers guessing who will survive to the final page. With sharp pacing, relentless action, and a climax that shatters expectations, this is a tale that grips from start to finish.
