He needed fifty dollars for a train ticket. He got a kidnapping, a posse of fools, and a war he didn’t start.Eldridge Sample rides into the corrupt railhead of Iron Point, Texas, with a prisoner worth five hundred dollars and pockets full of dust. But when the local Sheriff refuses the bounty and two vengeful card sharps try to kill him in his sleep, Sample finds himself broke, hunted, and stuck in a town where the law is just another racket.His luck turns from bad to worse on a train to Kansas City when bandits strike-not for the safe, but for the son of a wealthy railroad tycoon.Now, Sample is the only man standing between a kidnapped heir and a shallow grave. Hired by a desperate family of Eastern aristocrats who think the frontier is a storybook adventure, he must lead a posse of city slickers into the rugged hill country to face down a ruthless gang.But as they track the kidnappers into a deadly box canyon, Sample discovers that the bandit leader isn’t the only one pulling the strings. The trail leads back to Iron Point, where a crooked Sheriff and a vengeful gambler are waiting to settle a score in lead.'The price of admission is high,' Sample warned. 'And there are no refunds on bullets.'A high-octane Western thriller that blends the gritty realism of True Grit with the sharp-edged humor of Elmore Leonard. Texas Sharps is a story of unlikely alliances, brutal justice, and the hard lessons learned when money meets the muzzle of a gun.
