Nine rousing, noir Western tales with a hardboiled edge are collected in this third volume of short stories, Further Adventures of Cash Laramie and Gideon Miles.
Their story begins once again in the 1880s Wyoming Territory, then thunders through to 1930s New Orleans. The two Deputy U.S. Marshals continue to find themselves on the outside of societal norms.
Cash Laramie is known as The Outlaw Marshal for his unorthodox conduct toward criminals and his cavalier approach to life.
Gideon Miles, one of the first African Americans in the marshal service, is honorable, fearless, and unrivaled in his skills with guns, knives, and tracking.
These independent, resourceful lawmen develop a bond, establishing a formidable defense in a wayward land where good and wicked are often hard to distinguish and life is as cheap as a two-bit game of poker.

Praise for the first collection of short stories, Adventures of Cash Laramie and Gideon Miles by Amazon Best Selling Western author Edward A. Grainger:
With ADVENTURES OF CASH LARAMIE AND GIDEON MILES, Edward A. Grainger has given fans of traditional Westerns something new and exciting to sink their choppers into. Not a fan of Westerns? Been a while since you've tucked into one? Prefer crime stories? No worries, these stories are as much crime, action, and adventure tale as they are Western. But all that genre affiliation aside, these are damn fine stories.

I confess, until I read Grainger's Cash and Miles stories, I always thought of Westerns as dusty, dated affairs. But Grainger proved me wrong. His blend of Westerns and crime fiction is pitch-perfect, bringing out the best in both genres.

Plain and simple, Edward A. Grainger's, ADVENTURES OF CASH LARAMIE AND GIDEON MILES, proves that there's not only life in the Western genre, but it's kicking butt and taking names. This is one of the most entertaining Westerns of the year.
