Slaughter time
New Mexico Territory is no stranger to bad men. But south of the border, on the wild Mexican coastline, is another kind of wicked: a murderous Arab with a ship full of stolen women—to be sold as sex slaves in the four corners of the world. Among them is a missing local schoolteacher Shawn O'Brien has been searching for—a woman with a past she's kept carefully hidden. Now Shawn, along with a half-mad bear hunter and a professional hangman fight their way to the coast for a blood-soaked battle between the slavers and the US Navy. When the action runs aground, O'Brien gets his chance: to face down a sheik who profits from human misery—and makes a sport of slaughter . . .
