Charles Ray, one of the foremost and most respected writers in Western fiction today, delivers another action-packed winner!<\/p>\n

The legendary Rusty Rhodes is back in the saddle with his latest hard-riding bounty hunter adventure. Packed with classic Western tension, clever tracking, and unexpected frontier danger, The Red Ghost proves once again that Charles Ray is at the absolute top of his game.<\/p>\n

WHAT IS THIS ONE ABOUT?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rusty tracks a fugitive to the northwest region of Arizona Territory and learns that he\u2019s probably hiding out with relatives on one of the spreads in the vicinity of Fort Whipple, north of Prescott, the territorial capital. Once in the area, he discovers that finding someone among the widely separated ranches and farms won\u2019t be as easy as he\u2019d anticipated, and it might be complicated by a mysterious \u2018red ghost\u2019 that some people claim is running rampant in the area.<\/p>\n

Not a believer in ghosts, Rusty ignores the stories until he hears strange sounds while scouting one of the farms and finds evidence of some large creature having crashed through the underbrush near where he\u2019d tethered his horse. He now realizes that the red ghost, while not a ghost, is real and large enough to pose a danger. So, he puts his fugitive hunt on hold to solve the conundrum of the red ghost, and when he does, he and everyone else are surprised.<\/p>\n

Even more surprised is the wanted man when Rusty once more sets his mind to the hunt.<\/p>\n
