In Loren D. Estelman's Murdock's Law, Special U.S. Deputy Page Murdock rides into Breen, Montana, on the trail of a menacing and elusive outlaw. But, before he can scout the saloons for his man, he is made town marshal in a territory heating up for the ugliest range war this side of hell. The big ranchers want a gunslinger marshal, and the small ranchers have their own hired gun. But, the badge on Murdock's chest means law, and he'll enforce it the best way he knows...with a gun.
"Mr. Estleman plays in the majors...and his nervy characters can talk their way home on a double. A good clean game."
The New York Times Book Review
"Quicksilver dialogue, incisive characterizations, and canny interweaving of observations and events. Estleman's eye, ear, and hand are in perfect sync--you will want to call up your closest friends to read them your favorite paragraphs."
Washington Post Book World
"Estleman's prose and ability to set a mood are always first-rate."
