The Nevada Gun was published at a time when books were short enough that an author could produce one a month.
Vic Standish returned to Banister in search of Peggy Earnshaw, a rancher's daughter he had loved since childhood. A year ago, a lover's spat had ended their courtship with harsh words. Peggy was a proud, stubborn woman.
What he finds is that her father, uncles, and brothers have been murdered in his absence and Peggy is making a lone stand against an unknown gunman. But she is not alone now, she has Vic Standish at her side and someone is going to pay hell for what they've done.
A quick, satisfying read.
