Synopsis

In the rugged Arizona town of Two Forks, Tally Stevens knows he’s outmatched. With miners turning up dead, he sends for help from his old friends, Brian and Mark Bailey. But with Brian injured, it’s up to Mark and their trusted friend Joe Lamprey to ride to Tally’s aid.
 
As Mark takes over as the town’s marshal, he faces lawless gunmen and a sniper aiming to take him down. With reinforcements riding in from the Box T Ranch and Luke Bailey rallying the cowboys, they prepare for a final showdown.
 
But as the enemy’s grip tightens and hired guns pour into town, a climactic battle will decide the fate of Two Forks. In the West, justice is served in only one way: through a hail of gunfire.
 
A fast-shooting adventure in the Old West, THE MARSHAL OF TWO FORKS is the fourth book in the Bailey Clan Westerns series by Terence Newnes.
