Tesno was a troubleshooter. That's why the railroad construction
company had hired him. His job was to make sure that nobody interfered
with the tunnel that they were digging through that frontier region
mountain. Tesno knew one thing for sure--if they had called him in,
there must have been plenty interference--and the kind that didn't stop
at murder.
Frontier towns and frontier wilderness didn't pay much attention to
city-made laws. Tesno carried his own law with him and he knew he'd
have to make it respected. It was the law of the six-gun and the firm
high hand. Take no guff, keep your powder dry, and don't give an inch.
One moment of uncertainty, and it would mean his end!
