Powdersmoke justice

the long version

Jake Glendon was dead. It could have been suicide -- but it looked a lot like murder. Either way, it was good news, so no one cared much one way or the other about the details. Folks would dance on his grave. But when the Three Mesquiteers -- Tucson Smith, Lullaby Joslin and Stony Brooke -- rode off after discovering the body, they had no idea that they had actually ridden into one of the toughest cases in their long career of unofficial outlaw-busting. Glendon may have been dead, but his gang was very much alive -- and they had a habit of turning a deputy's badge into a death warrant for any man who wore it. As six-shooters blazed and blood spilled, they vowed to avenge the death of Jake Glendon.
