Slocum and the Scavenger Trail (Slocum Series #396)

Slocum’s greedy—for vengeance…

Everyone in the lawless town of Almost There has it. And Slocum ain’t above profiting from it. Guiding four greenhorn prospectors up Desolation Mountain should be easy money, but an ambush takes the life of three of them—and the other one, Clement Baranksy, has gone missing….
 
Slocum ain’t the kind of man to take money for nothing. He’s got to find Baranksy to set things right—especially after his son and luscious, headstrong daughter beg him for help. Turns out a man is running a scavenger trade, preying on miners. But gold is no match for Slocum’s lethal lead.
