Large print - 2011

"Using an old cannon that once belonged to Napoleon's army, an outlaw gang has been bringing trains to a screeching halt and then robbing them. Now Edward Sheffield, one of the owners of the railroad, wants to hire Kid Morgan, the man known as The Loner, to wipe the gang off the map. Morgan isn't interested--even when Sheffield's hot-blooded wife tries to seduce him into going after the gang's leader, Gideon Black, a renegade ex-colonel-turned-outlaw. But when the gang turns their big gun on a town, killing several innocent people, Morgan is left with no choice. And the best way to take them out is to become one of them. But in the process, Morgan will uncover some unsavory secrets and find himself caught in th...e middle of two ruthless forces."--P. [4] of cover. more
