Fool's Frontier

Crossing the Red Man River when it was in full flood wasn't the wisest thing gambler Duke Benedict and his cowboy sidekick Hank Brazos had ever done. And when the ferry they riding tore free of its ropes, they found themselves driven downstream until their wild ride ended on the banks of Peaceful Valley. Here, a religious order had built itself a town … but the Devil had settled in those parts, too, for one of the townsfolk had just been murdered, and the two newcomers quickly found themselves accused of the killing!As if that wasn't bad enough, Peaceful Valley was about to get a visit from bad man Chad Irons and his gang of cutthroats. Before he'd been sent to prison, the valley had been Irons' hideaway. Now he intended to take it back – and kill everyone who stood in his way!One way or another, it was time for Benedict and Brazos to start fighting back … They were an odd pair, the one-time Union captain and the former Confederate sergeant. They'd fought each other during the Battle of Pea Ridge ... and then ended up fighting shoulder to shoulder when a common enemy showed his face. These are the Western adventures of Hank Brazos and Duke Benedict.
