BODYGUARD TO A BIG SHOT

It sounded like a good job with nice pay.  But Starbuck soon found himself mistrusted by the very ones who hired him!  He even met opposition from beautiful Carla Flood, daughter of the "Highroller" he had sworn to protect.  But treachery seemed to lurk everywhere in the town of San Ignacio.  Why did so many want to kill Orville Flood and how would Starbuck stop them?  Could he just quit and ride away and still live to tell the story?

HIGHROLLER'S MAN, by Ray Hogan - #14 in the best-selling Shawn Starbuck series!

RAY HOGAN was born in Missouri in 1918.  Married with two children, he has lived most of his life in New Mexico.  His father was an early Western marshal and lawman, and Hogan himself has spent a lifetime researching the West.  In the last 30 years he has written over 200 articles and stories and 43 books, the majority dealing with the American West.  His work has been filmed, televised, and translated into six languages.

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
