Description: **Buckaroo's Code** When Jackson Mally decided to sell his cattle spread, he stood to lose a lot more than money. The ruthless renegades he's hired to deal with sodbusters were demanding a share of the profits and if Malloy wasn't willing to give the gunmen cold cash, they'd come after him with a hot lead. Aided only by ramrod Cotton Drenan and a few honest ranch hands, Malloy vowed to fight, even if he had to wage a range war that would turn Oregon into a living hell. **Gunlock** Joe Pardee ruled Colorado's Easter Valley with an iron fist until he was killed i na hail of gunfire. With Pardee dead, other cattlemen feared that homesteaders would start stealing their land, and it was up to Will Beeson to keep the valley intact peaceably. But even though Will knew how to settle a dispute without bullets, he had to fight the memory of Pardee's vicious tactics - or the blood of ranchers and nesters would flow like a river of death.
