Longarm #428

Longarm knows where the bodies are buried…

After her husband is killed in front of her, wealthy widow Frances Mayfield insists on hiring a bodyguard. And who better than the man that rescued her from the attackers-Deputy U. S. Marshal Custis Long? Of course, Longarm has a job, but when the widow makes him an offer he can't refuse, he turns in his badge and proceeds to guard the body of the bereaved beauty and accompany her to her ranch.

There Longarm discovers a grisly surprise-seven murdered men in a mass grave, their corpses deposited in a grim death cave on Mrs. Mayfield's vast property. Having failed to kill the rich rancher's wife, her enemies are attempting to frame her with this tomb of slaughtered sodbusters.

But the villains should have dug a grave for themselves, because Longarm is coming for them…
