Now the marshal's wife, Julia, calls on Yakima to wear her husband's badge and go up against the kill-crazy, vengeance-hungry Rebel Wilkes, who wants not only to destroy the town but his former lover, Julia Taggart, as well. But Julia has become Yakima Henry's lover now. The sleepy little desert town will soon become a powder keg of raw emotion and hot-flying lead!" Wildcat of the Sierra Estrada: "Rebel Wilkes might have burned Apache Springs two years ago, but with newly discovered gold in the surrounding mountains and a railroad on the way, the town is flourishing. With wealth comes trouble, and Yakima is about to have his fill, not the least of which is a canyon filled with lost Jesuit gold that fortune-hunters are willing to kill for. The gold is only one of Yakima's problems. The half-breed marshal finds himself caught in a love triangle involving to two beautiful Kosgrove daughters, Julia and Emma, whom he fittingly dubs the Wildcat of the Sierra Estrada. If the gold-hunters don't kill Yakima, the love hunters...and their none too happy father...just might!" --Dust jacket flap.
