    by Simon Rayner Davis



Synopsis

logo-na-100x100.jpg

The quiet gold mining town of Bedrock Falls in mid-west America is about to enjoy another typical night of dancing and hollering in the Lucky Strike saloon when their peace is about to be shattered. Sheriff Rooster Brewster and his new Deputy, Dead Eye Doc suddenly burst into the saloon with news of the imminent arrival of the meanest, ugliest, most terrifyin’ bunch of outlaws you could ever wish to meet, the Greedy Gulch Gang.  However, the Sheriff has no idea what they look like or how many of them there are, although it seems the newly arrived Stranger with No Name, a local bounty hunter might. 

However, things start to get more complicated with the arrival of the three Tucson Twins from Texas, or should that be Arizona, when they claim to be the meanest, ugliest, most terrifyin’ bunch of outlaws you could ever wish to meet.

Can Klondike Katy, the owner of the Lucky Strike saloon prevent her bartender, Tennessee Tom from constantly getting shots, or will Quick Draw McGraw manage to get his draws off before anyone else? Will the Sheriff and his deputy, save the day, or will the Stranger with No Name claim the bounty instead? 

Or finally will Tennessee Tom have the last say.
