JOHNSTONE COUNTRY. BACK IN THE SADDLE. AGAIN.
In this rip-roaring Western adventure, a once-famous Texas Ranger whoâs given up his badge and gone fishinâ gets back in the saddle to set things straightâwith guns blazinâ . . .
As a former Texas Ranger, Charlie âCatfish Charlieâ Tuttle spent the good part of his life catching outlaws. Happily retired in Wolfwater, Texas, heâs content just catching fishânamely Bubba, the wily old catfish who lives in the pond near Charlieâs shack and keeps slipping off Charlieâs hook. He also likes hanging out with his trusty tomcat Hooligan Hank and tossing back bottles of mustang berry wine. Sure, his glory days are behind him. Thereâs no reason for Charlie to even think about coming out of retirement . . .
It starts with a jailbreak. Frank Thorson and his gang ride into Wolfwater to bust Frankâs brother out of the slammer. First, they slaughter the deputy. Then, the town marshal. Finally, they run off with the marshalâs daughter and no oneâs sure if sheâs dead or alive. The townsfolk are desperate enough to ask that drunken old coot Catfish Charlie to put down his fishing pole and wine bottles, pick up his Colt Army .44, and go after the bloodthirsty gang. Sure, Catfish Charlie may be a bit rusty after all these years. But when it comes to serving up justice, no one is quicker, fasterâor deadlier . . .
Once a lawman, always a lawman. Especially a lawman like Catfish Charlie Tuttle.
