Bodie Kendrick is back. And, if you like action-packed westerns, you're in for a treat.Kendrick, introduced last year in "Hard Trail to Socorro," teams up with Doc Turpin, another bounty hunter, to clean up an outlaw gang that wreaked havoc robbing a bank in an Arizona town. They've barely finished the job and claimed their just rewards when Doc disappears in company with a beautiful senorita.Worried about his new-found friend, Kendrick follows the pair into Mexico where he rescues Estraleta, the fiery rebelista, from a firing squad. Before long, Kendrick and Turbin are teamed up with a band of people battling high odds to rescue their community from a gang of American desperados and corrupt Rurales.Fans familiar with Dundee's Joe Hannibal PI series will find him equally adept in the western genre. Good characterization, a solid plot, a bit of romance and plenty of gun-play. What's not to like?
