Bringing the news of her parents' murder and the destruction of their ranch in Mexico, she had ridden alone all the way to Texas to lay claim to the giant Twin R ranch ostensibly belonging to her uncle Phil. Ann wasn't alone in wanting the Twin R. Old man Pease, owner of the neighboring Lazy P, was anxious to double the size of his own spread by any means, and it didn't take long for the two to form an alliance. Ann's ambition combined with Pease's greed seemed too formidable for anyone to resist -- that is until Dork Wallace, Pease's ex-foreman, came to Phil's aid with a little-known fact of Texas law. But by then the dispute had gone far beyond the talking stage, and both sides looked to outside guns to enforce their claims to the contested Twin R, where tragic amounts of blood would be shed before the issue was settled."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Ranchers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Gunfighters $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Land tenure $z Texas $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Frontier and pioneer life $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Large type books. 651 0 $a Del Rio (Tex.) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Western fiction. 941 $a 1 945 $a lpt 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20240307012303.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=89405B04DC5011EE9AB7698352ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
