Death Valley Drifter

The Gunfighter #4

by Jeff Rovin, Ralph Compton

In this thrilling new installment in bestseller Ralph Compton's The Gunfighter series, a man wakes with no memory of who he is—or why someone wants him dead.

A gunman without a gun wakes up in Death Valley. He has no recollection of how he got there, or even his own name. He's a dead man walking until his luck turns. He stumbles upon the homestead of a widow and her young son who nurse him back to health. 
 
But in the desert good deeds come at a cost. The amnesiac is being trailed by hard men who want answers he doesn't have. First a group of gunslingers, then a troop of soldiers threaten the innocent family. Their only hope of rescue is the very man who got them in this predicament. 
 
But how can he help them when he doesn't even know who he is? At least the men who want to kill him seem to know his name. Maybe they'll put it on his gravestone.

An OK western. The writing is straightforward, but a little unclear at times. It was often difficult to figure out who the characters were — what role did they play. Even toward the end when things were wrapping up, there was some confusion. I think I will skip this author’s books unless I am desperate.

It was a great book, I would give 4.5 stars at there’s certain point when the author drops new people in but besides that the book shares a great story with some cool and interesting character that make the book great with an interesting story

Doesn’t live up to the title. Had some cool moments but doesn’t really scream Death Valley Drifter
