Beguinage Is Dead

Assigned to protect Crown Prince Rudolph of Bosgravinia while he was on a hunting expedition in Texas, Ole Devil Hardin's Floating Outfit knew that their task would be anything but easy. For one thing, they were fighting two separate groups of assassins, both made up of Rudolph's countrymen. But Dusty Fog, Mark Counter, the Ysabel Kid and Waco considered that the most serious threat had been removed. Posing as a hired killer, the small Texan had brought Beguinage, Europe's top assassin, into the open and killed him … or so they thought. Then things started to happen which made the Floating Outfit change their ideas from Beguinage being dead to the almost unthinkable "Beguinage is very much alive!" J.T. Edson brings to life the fierce and often bloody struggles of untamed West. His colorful characters are linked together by the binding power of the spirit of adventure -- and hard work -- that eventually won the West. With more than 25 million copies of his novels in print, J.T. Edson has proven to be one of the finest craftsmen of Western storytelling in our time. J.T. Edson describes a Floating Outfit as a group of cowhands who travel the outer sections of ranchland dealing with problems that occur far from the main house. Dusty Fog, The Ysabel Kid and Mark Counter make up the Floating Outfit at the OD Connected Ranch, and they travel far and wide punching cows and righting wrongs in the old West.
