Hang Town Lee Martin

When young deputy Ben Cross learns that Harry Lassiter-the hired gun who beat him into to running away at the age of twelve-is not his father, and that his real father is Tom Landry-a possibly innocent man just out of prison and headed for revenge at Hang Town-he is determined to arrive in time to save Landry from being shot down. Hang Town, Montana Territory, is controlled by rancher Jed Creighton and his gun hands. Creighton's niece Leslie suffers with her nasty gunfighter husband, Lassiter, and both believe Ben drowned when he ran away. Approaching Hang Town, Tom Landry is unaware he has a son with Leslie. Along with Higgins, an old timer, and the protective overgrown Matlock, Ben will face more than the truth as they ride into a series of violent confrontations. Meanwhile, after someone hangs the sheriff of Hang Town in a canyon, his daughter Suellen, a good shot, fights with everyone, including Ben. All roads are leading to Hang Town, where secrets are revealed and justice prevails in blasts of gunfire.
