Shane and Jonah 6: Hang the Man High

An innocent man was going to hang at sundown, for a murder he didn't commit. But not if Shane Preston and Jonah Jones could help it!Who could have possibly wanted to kill Jacob King? The rancher was universally admired, and had done great work for the town of Destiny Creek and its people. So he hated him enough to put three bullets in his back?The town had made up its mind to Luke Wainwright's guilt. The trial was a sham, and the hanging was set for just twenty-four hours' time.There wasn't much Jonah could do to help – he was in a sick-bed, recovering from a gunshot wound. So everything hinged on Shane being able to expose the guilty party in time to prevent the hanging.Then the unthinkable happened.Shane himself got shot – twice.And all of a sudden, Luke Wainwright was facing the hangman's noose alone.
