It's not just any gun that eccentric billionaire Ernie Swords wants, it's a long-lost antique, one with a story worth a fortune, and Swords has the money and the means to get it. Where Huey and his cohorts soon find themselves, however, is stranded far from civilization in a forgotten town dubbed Showdown City, where the infamous gun is one of hundreds readily available for the townsfolk to settle any and all disputes. After living in isolation for over a hundred years, the town has morphed into a warped, lawless community overseen by a delusional tyrant and his quick-draw henchman--and they do not take kindly to strangers. Huey is the one who got them into this mess in Showdown City, and now, with the unlikeliest help, he has a plan to shoot their way out. 650 0 $a Gunfighters $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Helicopter pilots $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Nevada $v Fiction. $9 211227 655 7 $a Western fiction. $2 lcgft $9 856528 655 7 $a Action and adventure fiction. $2 lcgft $9 802158 655 7 $9 802159 $a Alternative histories (Fiction) $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909041823.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=26751B523A5E11E99DA6365497128E48 994 $a C0 $b KAYInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
