Bannerman the Enforcer 18: Day of the Lawless

By Kirk Hamilton

Something crooked was happening in the border town of Condor. Every Texas Ranger sent to find out what it was ended up disappearing, never to be seen again. But Governor Dukes had an idea what was behind it all—stolen guns. And if those guns fell into the wrong hands, it could spell disaster, especially for the Lone Star State.
Where the Rangers had failed in stopping the gun-runners, Dukes’ top Enforcers, Yancey Bannerman and Johnny Cato, might just succeed. The old politician could only hope. Because down in Mexico, El Halcon—a bandit masquerading as a patriot—was building an army to take back everything that remained of Old Spain ... including Texas itself!
