Bladen Cole: Bounty Hunter — Bill Yenne

Is the bounty hunter actually the hunted?

Bladen Cole is getting a handsome sum of money from Isham Ransdell, the owner of the Gallatin City Bank. It's not a withdrawal, but a reward for the heads of the men who killed Ransdell's associates. The banker wants the Porter boys back in Gallatin City dead or alive -- preferably dead. As Cole sets out on his manhunt, he questions the motivation of his new client, the only rich man in Gallatin City somehow left unscathed...

His pursuit goes smoothly enough until he finds himself in the middle of a battle between two rival Blackfeet bands. Cole is forced to take sides, but luckily, this double duty leads him straight to the Porter boys, who are surely surprised to see a bounty hunter flanked by such an unusual posse. But Bladen is in for a few surprises of his own…
