The Cowboy and the Ghost Victor B Smith

What could seem more ridiculous than meeting a ghost? Especially when it's the ghost of a man who has been given the task of enlisting the help of one particular man in order to get his revenge on the man responsible for his death? Not only that, but this ghost even needs to beg a lift into town before he can begin to carry out his plan!Mike Lindsay quickly discovers the town is practically owned by the bad guys, and our hero is forced almost against his better judgement to take the newly vacant job of sheriff. The girl he soon falls in love with is at first convinced he is one of the villains and is herself faced with the choice of either marrying the chief baddie or losing her livelihood and thus being forced into a fate worse than, or as bad as, one might imagine. As you might have guessed, the new sheriff will, in the finest Western tradition, need to set things in order. After all, with help from beyond the grave, as it were, what could possibly go wrong?This latest book by Vic Smith is perhaps a little different from his earlier writing, but hopefully readers will enjoy the change of pace.
