Sidewinders - Written by William W. Johnstone
In frontier literature, the name "Johnstone" means big, hard-hitting Western adventure told at a breakneck pace. Now, the
bestselling author kicks off a rollicking, dramatic new series about a
pair of not-quite-over-the-hill drifters winding their way across the
American west-mostly on the right side of the law...but sometimes, if
the situation calls for it, on the wrong side.
Meet Scratch Morton and Bo Creel, two amiable drifters and old pals. Veterans of
cowboying, cattle drives, drunken brawls, and a couple of shoot-outs,
Scratch and Bo are mostly honest and don't go looking for trouble—it's
usually there when they wake up in the morning.

William Johnstone’s towering Mountain Man and The Last Gunfighter series are epics of the frontier. Now, with J.A. Johnstone, he has created Sidewinders, a wild, rollicking ride alongside two hardheaded cowboys with a knack for staying on the wrong side of the law—but for all the right reasons...
Sometimes, it’s bad to be good. That’s what happens when Scratch Morton and Bo Creel are rewarded with a gold mine for saving a rich man’s bacon. The catch: this mine is a magnet for marauding Mexican banditos. Budding capitalists, Scratch and Bo fight back. That’s when they discover that the thieves aren’t who they thought they were, some really bad guys are on the way, and a beautiful woman might just be the most dangerous bandit of all—the kind that can steal your heart. For Scratch and Bo, this gold mine might make them rich. But it’s more likely to get them killed—just as soon as they can figure out who wants them dead...

2: Massacre at Whiskey Flats
In the west, there’s always work for the kind of men willing to get their hands dirty—from rounding stray cattle to stringing barbed wire. Bo Creel and Scratch Morton are just such men. Now they’ve been hired for the one job they’ve never tried: wearing badges—in a little stain of a town called Whiskey Flats.
What Bo and Scratch don’t know is that a gang of outlaws is bent on burning down the town the Sidewinders have been hired to protect. With only a passing acquaintance of the law, a keen sense of self-preservation, and a range-war gathering round them, Bo and Scratch need a good plan or it’s a one-way ticket to Boot Hill. They’ll also need a little luck, a whole mess of bullets, and the courage to stand tall—and shoot true…

Scratch Morton and Bo Creel, two aging cowpokes and friends for years, have seen their share of cattle drives, shootouts and bust-ups. They do their best to stay on the right side of the law, and never go looking for trouble, but it seems to find them just the same. In Arizona Territory, they get stuck in the midst of a battle between competing stagecoach lines. Of course, a pretty woman who happens to own one of the lines has a lot to do with it, and things aren't quite what they seem.
