The Outlaw Left For Dead - Rot Gut Pulp: Lasso & Lariat, #1

A railroad moving to the struggling hamlet of Clear Butte promises jobs, but change is difficult and the townspeople are angry. Sheriff Nettie Foster is helping with negotiations when the mayor dies in gunfire. His murderer is jj Blackwater - a man Foster brought to justice and left for dead years before. Blackwater now works for Ewers Bliss Wardell, a ruthless gold tycoon who takes over as mayor with promises to return the town to its former glory.
He intends to send the railroad away, re-open a dangerous mill, fire Foster and make Blackwater sheriff. Can Nettie Foster delay Wardell's plans, save the town, and return Blackwater to justice? The Outlaw Left for Dead is the first entry in Rot Gut Pulp's Lasso and LariatT Western series. Based on absurd pulp magazine stories of the '30s and '40s, it continues Rot Gut Pulp's commitment to 45-minute neo-pulp short reads.
It's perfect for the beach or camp, mindless study breaks, short flights and long commutes. Rot Gut Pulp: Long Live Short Fiction.T
