Ralph Compton Slaughter Canyon eBook

A U.S. Marshal ends up in the last place he should be in this Ralph Compton western...

Deputy U.S. Marshal Matt Battles is being blackmailed—by President Chester A. Arthur. The Commander-in-Chief needs someone to discover why Hatfield J.

Thanks to a falsified news report planted by the Secret Service, Battles is now wanted for robbery and murder, leaving him no choice but to infiltrate Warful’s gang by posing as an outlaw on the run.
