The Ghost of Iron Eyes (An Iron Eyes Western book 8)
“As the acrid gunsmoke cleared, the dozen or more bodies were revealed to the eyes of the terrified females who had been gathered together by the outlaws. No sooner had the deafening sound of the rifles being fired stopped ringing in the ears of the impassive gang members than the screaming started. It was the most chilling of noises.
Yet it was a sound that Jardine and his confederates had heard many times over the previous months. The outlaws knew that they would not permit any rebels within t...he boundaries of this town. They had learned by their mistakes on their way to Diamond City.
They knew that this time they would have to allow some of the townspeople to live if they were to remain here. They required slaves to keep the town up and running. This would not be like Black Rock, Porter’s Bluff and the other settlements they had entered and plundered. This time they would not slaughter every living creature within the town’s boundaries.
This time they would be merciful. At least merciful by the sordid standards they had set themselves.MoreLess
