Longarm and the missing bride

the long version

"Deputy U.S. Marshal Custis Long is none too keen on his latest assignments: pushing papers at the boss's office, then babysitting some rich hombre traveling with a king's ransom. But Longarm's focus is about to turn real serious--and real personal--real fast. 'NOT YOUR JOB STOP RETURN IMMEDIATELY' Any other time, Longarm would heed his boss's telegram. But a friend's daughter has been kidnapped to be a child bride--and Custis won't sleep, let alone give up his search, until he helps a posse of depraved crazies take a dirt nap."--p. [4] of cover.
