Death Watch — Kirk Hamilton

When a man plays both ends against the middle, there’s always the chance the deal might just blow up in his face. But the man who figured to turn outlaw leader Lincoln Rand in for a new identity, a ranch all paid-for and a lifetime free from prosecution himself, wasn’t worried about that.Too bad. He should have allowed for Rand’s powerful reach … even from behind the bars of a tough Texas jail.Because even as Rand awaited the hangman’s rope, his ruthless friends on the outside were aiming to silence the informer before he could testify, and only one man stood between them – the governor’s top Enforcer, Yancey Bannerman.But Yancey was at a disadvantage. He played by the rules; Rand’s men didn’t.And they were going to try every dirty trick in the book to save their boss … and settle with the man whose word could easily send him to the gallows!
