This new collection from Russ Towne pulls together two of his most popular short story collections. In this set you will find all the stories contained within A Bloody Day in Destiny and A Bullet in the Neck.

The past comes calling with a six-gun and a score to settle, and there’s no place to hide in “A Bloody Day in Destiny.” An unwelcome sleeping companion holds the key to survival when two vengeful brothers catch up to the man who shot their brother in “I Hate Snakes.” A lonely rancher gets much more than he bargained for when a beautiful woman with a secret past responds to his ad for a wife in a “Mail-Order Bride.” An aging marshal faces a desperate young killer with nothing left to lose in “Peace.” Greed leads to violence, betrayal, and death, as honest, hard-working gold miners discover a traitor in their midst when they must confront a killer and his vicious gang of murdering thieves in "Gold Fever." 

An ambitious man works to overcome many obstacles as he works to make his big dream come true, unaware that he has yet to face the greatest obstacle of all in "Big Dream Ranch." A dying man is awakened by a gun-toting stranger in his bedroom who has a terrible story to tell that might just save his life in "Mary's Medicine." A series of tragedies push a young woman toward a terrible choice: Marry a man she detests to save her ranch and ensure the survival of her young son and herself, or risk everything to keep her freedom - and her time is running out in "Annie Davenport and Dr. Hartlee’s Miracle Headache Cure." If you love the popular Western short story collections of Scott Harris, Robert Hanlon, and Paul L. Thompson - you will love Bloody Showdown on Three Falls Creek.
