The leather slapper

Nye, Nelson C. (Nelson Coral) 1907-1997 (author.).

Summary: "When "Slow-Down" Munn, deputy U. S. marshal, arrives one night in the hell-bending copper camp of Laughing Horse, it is with the intention of posing as a drifting smokeroo and hiring out his pistols to Sheriff Loma Jack, who it seems is powerless to check the turbulent stream of killings, robberies and other criminal acts which are swiftly giving his county seat a most unenviable reputation. But hardly has Munn walked his pony the length of the town's main drag when he finds himself a marked man, involved inextricably in a cold-deck game of draw. Iron nerve and a keen sense of justice, aided and abetted by grim circumstance, force the young deputy marshal into joining up with Curly Red, a notorious outlaw upon whose flaming head the sheriff has posted a mighty tempting reward. Romance, mystery and action gallop hand-in-hand in this swift-paced yarn of roaring guns in a land where men sit tight in their saddles and face death with a grim smile and a high courage"--
