Ralph Compton Rawhide Flat (Thorndike Large Print Western)

Rawhide Flat is full of hard men with hard-earned cash from working the Comstock Lode. So when the bank is robbed and two civilians cut down, a posse delivers its own justice, leaving only Judah Walsh alive. Walsh offers to tell where the gang hid the money in return for a horse, a hundred bucks, and a free ride out of the state, but they'd rather torture it out of him. Lucky for Walsh, protection arrives in a hail of bullets from Deputy U.S. Marshal Augustus Crane.
