Book excerpt: Some say that wearing a badge makes a man stand a mite taller than others. but Sheriff Gil Blowser could change their minds about that. Gil is a double dealin' polecat who's discovered that sportin a star on your chest makes the best cover of all. And when Marshal Long tags along with Blowser's posse on the trail of highwaymen, he fins himself at the business end of an outlaw iron sooner than he expected. Seems this time the law and the outlaws are one and the same and any way you look at it, Longarm's on the wrong side.
