Some Die Young

Johnstone Country. Where Freedom Stings.

They call him The Man from Waco. Jailed for a crime he didn't commit. Freed by the judge who locked him up but needs his protection. Hunted by a rival who wants them both dead . . .

Everyone deserves a second chance. Even someone like John Bannack. He took the fall for his bank-robbing brother. Served time in a Texas State Prison. And saved the life of Judge Wick Justice when their prison wagon was ambushed. The judge was so grateful--and so impressed by Bannack--he decided to release the hard-fighting man from Waco and employ him as his own private bodyguard. And personal avenger . . .

It's an offer Bannack can't refuse. But freedom isn't free--and working for Justice is no picnic. Turns out the judge has an awful lot of enemies--both inside and outside the law--and most of them want him dead. The worst of the bunch is a rival judge named Raymond Grant, who hates everything Justice stands for. Especially his newly freed ex-con bodyguard. Grant wants to put Bannack behind bars again. He has the law on his side, the hatred in his heart--and the deadliest hired guns money can buy. Even so, Bannack doesn't scare easily. But when the shooting starts, the bullets fly--and Death comes for Justice--the Man from Waco will know the true face of fear . . .
