Cochise Cowboys - Dennis H. Williams

Denton Crouch left the Texas Rangers behind for a quiet life on a small ranch in Arizona’s Chiricahua Mountains. But peace is hard to come by when cattle rustlers, murdered cowboys, and a dangerous outlaw gang bring trouble straight to his door.

Then Denton meets Inez, a tough Apache woman who can ride, shoot, track, and hold her own against any man on the frontier. Together, they find themselves caught between ruthless rustlers, Mexican Rurales, and men who will kill to keep stolen cattle moving across the border.

With Sheriff John Slaughter at his side and danger closing in, Denton must decide just how far he is willing to go to protect his ranch, his future-and the woman who has become part of both.

COCHISE COWBOYS is a hard-riding Western tale of cattle thieves, frontier justice, loyalty, and two people fighting for a better life in a land where trouble is never far away.
