Gunfight on the Alpha Centauri Express

By John Bowers

Barely recovered from his adventure at Binary Flats, Nick Walker is suddenly sucked into another situation so bizarre it almost defies belief. His reputation as a two-fisted lawman has spread throughout the settled galaxy; many compare him to Yancy West, the fictional Hollywood hero of the Ancient West, and billions are grateful for what he does.

But not everybody.

Just as he is about to take on the most dangerous adversary he has yet faced-a terrorist organization intent on the overthrow of the Federation-Nick gets sucker-punched by a "legal-eagle" tinhorn in a $4000 business suit who thinks Nick's law enforcement methods are just too violent. Assistant U.F. Attorney Brian Godney seeks an injunction against Nick, and a court hearing to determine if excessive-force charges can be filed.

If that isn't enough, Godney's assistant is U.F. Attorney Victoria Cross, a former Star Marine with whom Nick was once involved...and his fianc?e, Suzanne Norgaard, isn't going to be happy about that. Nick finds himself juggling terror attacks, the media, and courtroom antics as he struggles to make sense of it all-and if the U.F. Attorney doesn't get his head...the terrorist leader wants him dead.

Don't miss this fast-paced, high-octane thriller as Nick Walker faces the possibility of prison even as he tries to save the planet from the raging terror threat. It will all come to a head during the Gunfight on the Alpha Centauri Express.
