Slocum hired on with Trent Brady to help drive a herd of three hundred horses from Cheyenne,Wyoming to Santa Fe,New Mexico.What looked like a long peaceful ride,soon changed drastically when thay were attacked by a gang of outlaws, led by Sluice, who had been sentenced to hang but had been busted out by friends. We are treated to a great ,action filled western ,filled with well develpoped characters and a storyline that keeps the reader gripped from start to finish. In this excellent ,true to form Old West western, you are going to meet two of the worst of the worst desperados that you can imagine .Sluice and Jigs are as evil as evil can get.They are as difficult for Slocum to catch as eels in a barrel of slime.There characters are so bad ,that when they finally land in Hell,and that is surely where they're headed;that when they meet the Devil ,he'll tell them,"there's no place here for the likes of men like you." This episode in this series is one of the best western yarns I've read in quite a while.
