A Death Valley Christmas - Paperback
by William W. Johnstone (Author), J. A. Johnstone (Author)
From William W. and J.A. Johnstone, the bestselling masters of the American West, comes a special holiday entry in the Jensen family saga. This time, they're risking their lives for peace on earth--and for a piece of hell called Death Valley...
A JENSEN CHRISTMAS SHOWDOWN
A JOHNSTONE TRADITION
Ace and Chance Jensen usually spend Christmas at the Sugarloaf Ranch. But this year, the brothers are heading to Death Valley to claim Chance's prize in a poker game: the deed to a silver mine. Sure, the mine is probably dried up and worthless, but what they don't realize is that half the deed belongs to a ruthless outlaw named Foxx, a rich vein of silver hasn't been tapped yet, and another wealthy mine owner is trying to crush the competition--by killing every miner in the valley...
The Jensen boys didn't plan on a Christmas gunfight. But when they show up at the mine--and learn that a charity worker is using the silver to fund an orphanage--Ace and Chance can't help but get into the holiday spirit. 'Tis the season of giving, after all. But instead of gifts, they're swapping bullets. And instead of Santa Claus, there's a surprise visitor coming to town. A man named Luke Jensen--Ace and Chance's gunslinging father--and he's here to spread peace and joy. With a double-barreled dose of holiday cheer--gunsmoke.

Being the all-around assistant, typist, researcher, and fact checker to one of the most popular western authors of all time, J.A. Johnstone learned from the master, Uncle William W. Johnstone. He began tutoring J.A. at an early age. After-school hours were often spent retyping manuscripts or researching his massive American Western history library as well as the more modern wars and conflicts. J.A. worked hard--and learned. Every day with Bill was an adventure story in itself. Bill taught me all he could about the art of storytelling. 'Keep the historical facts accurate, ' he would say. 'Remember the readers, and as your grandfather once told me, I am telling you now: be the best J.A. Johnstone you can be.'At the heart of every product lies a unique story, driven by our passion for quality and innovation. Each item enhances your everyday life and sparks joy.
