Coldwater range [large print] / John D Nesbitt.

Nesbitt, John D., (author.).

Summary:

"Del Rowland, working for Bill Overlin at the Spoke ranch, begins to doubt the boss's integrity when Overlin and others bully a homesteader named Holt Warren and goad him into a fatal gunfight. Dels curiosity increases as he gets to know Overlins stepdaughter, Lawna, and hears stories from saloon patrons. One of them is shot in the street at night. Meanwhile, the cattlemen step up their aggression by burning Holt Warrens buildings and running their cattle on his pasture. Del quits his job at the Spoke and goes to work among the homesteaders. He also has conversations in town and gains further knowledge about Holt Warren, his adoration of Lawnas mother, and old suspicions about the death of Lawnas father and the death of Overlins first wife. As the cattlemen terrorize the homesteaders, Del develops an interest in Tess, a nester girl, and takes a job salvaging lumber, but the marauders shoot down one of the workers and set the barn afire. Del has to defend himself if he hopes to see Tess again." -- Provided by publisher.
