| Summary |
"The Lonely Law was Jim Larribee, Sheriff of Pinnacle County. Larribee had been befriended in many ways and had finally been helped to his office by Big Dan Sharples, and rumor had it that Big Dan owned Larribee from ears to hocks, and the star with him. But Larribee felt different. He knew that the star built a wall around a man -- that he was in a damned lonely corner. But the middle of the road was where he would stay, playing no favorites, and whoever set out to use him as a sucker or a handy man could well learn some hard facts of life. This is the story of Larribee's adventures as the Lonely Law. They began with a battle to return an escaped bail jumper. They caught him in a bitter shooting feud between two ranchers, one of whom was the father of a handsome girl. And at long last they brought him face to face with Big Dan Sharples again, with gun smoke and death in the air. Action is here; with it, suspense builds to a smashing climax. And always through this unusual novel moves the solitary but compelling figure of the law who played a lone hand because that was the way he saw it and the only way it could be."-- Provided by publisher. |
