Deadly Fortune
About this ebook
Trouble is in the cards for Clint Adams when he saunters into a saloon to quench his thirst. After hearing Clint's name, two shady customers look to improve their standing with their prospector boss, Mr. Torquelan, by greeting the Gunsmith with guns drawn. But they quickly feel the sting of regret...
When Clint learns the gruesome twosome were motivated by a local fortune-teller named Madame Giselle, he visits the sultry psychic and discovers that she's far more interested in the length of his love line than in cutting his life short. But the outlook is no good for Clint if he doesn't leave town soon—because there's no predicting what dangers the sinister Mr. Torquelan might unleash.
