THE HELLBOUND MAN

Jim Benton had come to think of himself as the hellbound man because he seemed to be headed in that direction. But there were some interesting stops along the way. One such stop was a lawless little town called Rustler's Roost in honor of some charming young men who seemed to think other men's cattle, horses and women were theirs for the taking.

But Benton had them worried. He didn't seem afraid of them and when somebody shot at him he shot back – with alarming accuracy. They were afraid somebody had sent for him to put a stop to the rustling. One of the local ranchers or perhaps old Charlie Fry who had the biggest store in town and two beautiful stepdaughters, but also had his eye on the ranch of a man who owed him money and the man's wild daughter, who galloped about the country on a palomino almost the same color as her windblown hair. One of the rustlers had already put his outlaw brand on her and two others were plotting to kill Benton to make sure he didn't get too friendly with Fry's girls.

When the shooting was over some more dead men littered the trail behind Benton and it was time for the hellbound man to ride on toward his final destination.

Warning: Reading a Van Holt western may make you want to get on a horse and hunt some bad guys down in the Old West. Of course, the easiest and most enjoyable way to do it is vicariously—by reading another Van Holt western.
