"Ross Chance had travelled a long way to get to this spot -- across a thousand miles of bleak range and five years of galling pride and bitter loneliness. In those years his land had been taken and his father killed. He had no evidence -- nothing that would stand up in a court of law. But the gun in his hand was judge and jury. This land was his, and he would hold it -- law or no law." A Ballantine hardcover original, coded "H7" on the front jacket flap. . (Inventory #: 19183)
