The Legend of El Muerte Blanco: All 4 Novels

El Muerte Blanco: The White Death Six-year-old James West watches through a cellar vent as the Wilson Gang burns his family's Texas farm and murders his parents. Left alive as a "witness to their greatness," he is taken in by a neighboring Ranger family who raise him and teach him everything the frontier demands - tracking, survival, Spanish, and, above all, how to shoot. For seven years James practices 500 draws every morning and 500 every night, until the gun arrives in his hand faster than the eye can follow. On his seventeenth birthday he rides south with two pistols, forty dollars, and a strip of leather with seven names carved into it. He hunts them one by one across the Texas Panhandle, the Hill Country, and the border country, earning a legend he never sought - El Muerte Blanco, the White Death, a pale ghost who settles old debts and vanishes. When the last three men flee across the Rio Grande into the Sierra Madre, James follows, taking a bullet in Coahuila before tracking the Wilson brothers to their fortified hacienda deep in the Mexican desert. He goes in during a dust storm. He doesn't come back the same man who went in - but he comes back. >
