In the untamed West, legends are forged in gunsmoke and grit. Rhys Morgan never asked to be one of them. At fourteen, he avenged the murder of his family and earned a reputation that drew every glory-seeking gunslinger his way.

Under the guidance of Marshal Atticus Flint, Rhys heads to Arizona and trades his six-shooter for a plow. But when his mentor is gunned down by men from the Rocking P ranch, Rhys has no choice but to return to the life he tried to leave behind.

Facing the blood-soaked trail waiting for him, Rhys must tame a lawless town on the brink of war and protect the people he's come to care for.

A gritty, fast-paced western, THE WACO KID is the first book in the Fast Gun series by Terence Newnes.
