Jess Williams #75
Lead Jury
While Jess would like nothing more than a good long rest after successfully ridding Nebraska of a few vicious outlaws, fate has a way of stepping in to spoil his plans. He’s met up with someone whose company he greatly enjoys, the beautiful but deadly female bounty hunter, Wildcat.
It seems Wildcat has something special in mind, but it isn’t rest. The usually wild and dangerous territory of New Mexico has gotten much worse and she needs Jess’s help in cleaning out some of the worst gangs in the southern part of the region.
Jess, Wildcat, John Bodine and Shadow all head to the southern part of New Mexico Territory. The only one not wearing a Deputy United States Marshals badge is the timber wolf, Shadow.
The gangs of murderous outlaws who have fled from neighboring states to elude the law have no idea of the trouble heading their way. The killers are about to be treated like they’ve been treating their victims…with ruthless and deadly force.

Williams, Bodine, and Wildcat, wearing U.S. Marshal badges, become vigilantes and work at cleaning up southern New Mexico Territory of the worst of the outlaw gangs. Usual violence, just with more shooters.
Nothing special.

DIRT BLANKETS
New Mexico Territory is a great place to hang around if your running from the law. Well the US Marshals Service has sworn the female bounty hunter Wildcat into the Marshals Service, so when she goes hunting these owlhoots it'll be legal. Jess Williams and John Bodine are accompanying Wildcat on their quest to avenge the innocents of the town's these men ride through murdering, robbing. Shadow is also accompanying them.
We all love Jess Williams, John Bodine, Sharps and Gray. They are a force to deal with. "Lead Jury" is just what Southeast New Mexico needs.
Well let's all stock up for the next adventure of Jess Williams, wherever the "Wanted Dead or Alive" takes us. Keep your campfires smokeless and your pistol ready for whatever decides to walk in from the darkness.

Lead Jury
Not as good as most of Jess Williams books. This one was same all the way through. Too much same thing. But I'm glad to know he has a woman. But I like it when he's helping someone, even when he's looking for a killer. But I still read it. Write some more of Jess's books.

Dangerous
This series has finally arrived at the point that I think there is too much killing? I've enjoyed the series but I probably won't read anymore for awhile. For those who like the killing enjoy the story will continue!

Death Sentence
Jess and Shadow have some help serving the Death Sentence in some of the very worst criminals. Fast paced with plenty of action. Looking forward to reading number 76. I highly recommend this author.

Great series, Jess Williams cleaning up the west of deadly killers
I have read all seventy five books in this series, loved every one of them. The Jess Williams books keep the reader turning pages to find out who will be the next bad guy who gets justice.

This is the best novel in the Jess Williams series. All of the Heroes are in this, can’t put down story. I have enjoyed reading everyone of these novels, but this one more than the others. Hopefully the author will continue writing more and more Jess Williams stories.

One of the best yet.
Wow what a great story. My favorite characters. Jess, Wildcat, Shadow and Bodine together to get rid of the bad men in New Mexico. Lots of action, suspense mixed with a little romance.

Three Marshalls
Lots of action when Jess, John Bodine , Wildcat and Shadow pursues deadly gangs of outlaws in New Mexico. Not for trial but to kill for all the killings the gangs have committed.
