Overview: John Thomas Edson is an English writer of Westerns. He was born in 1928. He was obsessed with Westerns from an early age and often "rewrote" cowboy movies that he had seen at the cinema. One thing that always intrigued him was the minutiae—how did the baddie’s gun jam? What were the mechanics of cheating at cards? How did Westerners really dress and speak?
His writing was helped to develop by a schoolteacher who encouraged him. Now lives in Leicester, Leicestershire.
Genre: Western
Book 1 – The Sixteen Dollar Shooter
Bradford Counter stood six feet three and weighed two hundred and twenty pounds. He was a graduate of the University of Southern Texas’s Police Science and Administration Class and had passed the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s training course for police officers with honors. His black belts in judo and karate were backed by a thorough knowledge of roughhouse brawling and dirty fighting. By virtue of his expertise with firearms, he was a member of the F.B.I.’s exclusive ‘Possible Club’ and his scores on the Police Combat Shooting Course of the Rockabye County Sheriff’s Office earned him an extra sixteen dollars a week.
With such qualifications Brad knew plenty about the theory of modern law enforcement. But before he had held his badge for thirty-six hours, he found himself up against a pair of professional killers who never hesitated to use their guns. Under those conditions experience counted, and theory was of little use. Because in a real gunfight, there was only one second prize awarded… death!
Book 2 – The Lawmen of Rockabye County
Gusher City, Texas…
Two terrorists had seized hostages, demanding an aircraft to take them to Cuba…
Then ‘Crazy Doc’ Christopher had escaped from the penitentiary, hell-bent on vengeance…
But when Walter Haddon—one of the FBI’s ten most wanted men—strolled into Gusher City, all four men found out what other criminals bad discovered to their cost. Breaking the law in Rockabye County was fraught with peril. For they were up against men like Sheriff Jack Tragg, Deputy Sheriffs Brad Counter and Thomas Cord and the rest of the lawmen of Rockabye County…
Book 3 – The Sheriff of Rockabye County
Jack Tragg, sheriff of Rockabye County, Texas, was a powerful, sun-bronzed six foot one. Although he owned traditional cowhand style outfits, he usually wore a business suit or khaki uniform. His gunbelt was a modern combat-shooter’s rig, with a single Smith & Wesson .41 Magnum. Jack had a stable of fine horses at his disposal, but most of the time he travelled by car, airplane or helicopter.
Like his Old West predecessors, Jack’s duty was to keep the peace and maintain law and order in his bailiwick. Tough—fast with a gun—Jack was the jet-aged lawman!
Book 4 – The Professional Killers
Tom Cord was within three months of retirement when bushwhack lead cut him down. No lawman ever allowed one of his fellow officers to be murdered without making every effort to get his killer. Deputy Sheriff Bradford Counter, a modern-day gun wizard, had been Tom’s partner; Woman Deputy Alice Fayde was Tom’s niece.Together they began the hunt for the old deputy’s killer. The search took them across the Rockabye County rangelands, through the slums of Gusher City’s Bad Bit and into the upper-crust district of Upton Heights. At last the trail ended, with Brad Counter’s gun-skill matched against the two professional killers who shot his partner down.
