A two-book omnibus edition featuring the famed .45-Caliber series featuring Cuno Massey. In .45-Caliber Town Under Siege, a gang of cutthroats who call themselves "the Boys" led by the savage killer Cecil Craig run Cuno's freight wagon off the road and into a canyon, killing the young freighter's mules and setting him afoot. That's only the start of the desperados' depredations. In .45-Caliber Left to Die, Cuno is passing through central New Mexico when he's ambushed by town tamer Lawton Briggs and three other men and one pretty but angry young woman, Stacey Ramos. Believing Massey is part of a gang of stage robbers, they strip him naked, lay him out spread-eagle and tied to ground-sunk stakes, and leave him to die.
