Ballad for Sallie by Judy Alter

Ballad for Sallie by Judy Alter

      
The Gunfighter... Longhair Jim Courtright had been both a marshal and a desperado - and in Hell's Half Acre, the roughest part of Fort Worth, he was a living legend. His skill with a gun had made him a hero in some people's eyes...and a killer in others. The Orphan... Scrappy Lizzie Jones was one tough kid. She had to be. If she didn't look out for herself, no one would do it for her. But she still had a few hard lessons to learn if she wanted to survive. The Widow... As soon as young widow Sallie McNutt stepped off the stage from Tennessee, her refined manners and proper attire set her apart from the other women of the Half Acre. And it wasn't long before something else set her apart - someone wanted her dead.
