Trouble Shooter: A Novel (Hopalong Cassidy)

This is the last book of Lamour's Hopalong Cassidy series. Gave it to my son as a gift. He says it is not as good as the first three.

First of all, I liked this Louis L'Amour book greatly. I like L'Amour's slick and heroic character, Hopalong Cassidy. The book has a great plot and all. In the beginning Hoppy looked for the PM ranch which his friend Pete Melford owned. The people in town say they never heard of him. Hoppy meets Cindy Blair, Pete's niece and Rig Taylor. They can't find the ranch either. Hopalong meets Pike Towne and his wife Sarah. They try to get a job from Colonel Justin Tredeway. Their job is to pull cattle out of the prickly pear forest. They go through the brush and gather cattle. They know Tredeway has been there long so they might find what happened. Will they find out what has happened? How long will it take? How close will Hoppy come to death? Who will die? Who may have gotten rid of Pete Melford? There are many page-turning incidents throughout this Louis L'Amour classic. Get this book today!
