Lacey Doherty and his buddies hung Johnny Pancho because he was a Mexican. That's all. Just because he was a Mexican trying to make good on American soil. But Shane Preston suspected there was more to it than that. And though he and his saddle partner, Jonah Jones, had promised themselves a peaceful little fishing vacation, Shane soon found himself investigating the crime.Everyone was against him—the townsfolk, the local cattlemen, the town's oily money-lender … and Jason Wiley, who ran a thriving lumber business and was known to have an interest in acquiring Johnny's land …Expecting no help at all from the local law, a man who had come back from the Civil War with his nerves shot to hell, Shane and Jonah found themselves doing what they did best—fighting injustice, no matter the odds.And everything came to a head on the morning of … the hanging!
