ALL HELL IS BREAKING LOOSE IN NORTHERN MONTANA! When Sheriff Ben Stillman's deputy and best friend, Leon McMannigle, shoots a young woman who was about to shoot Stillman in the back, Leon takes the outlaw girl's lifeless body back to her mountain ranch to turn her over to her family. He feels the need to explain himself, to personally account for the girl's death. His explanation falls on deaf ears. Old Watt Hollister sends his wild sons led by his eldest boy, Nash, out on the trail to exact revenge for their poor dead sister. Wounded, McMannigle is alone and on the run in the Two-Bear Mountains, hunted like a calf-killing mountain lion. Ben Stillman isn't at all happy when he gets wind of his friend's fate. In fact, when you mess with Stillman's friends or his family, it's damn well guaranteed you have all-out war on your hands. Stillman's War is the ninth novel in the fast-moving, western classic Sheriff Ben Stillman Series.
