Longarm Giant #30: Longarm And The Ambush At Holy Defiance - Plot & Excerpts
Haven began firing the Winchester behind him. She was probably a good two hundred yards away from the man, shooting uphill, so the Winchester would be hard-pressed to hit its target even with an expert squeezing the trigger. But her shots blew up dust along the slope below the man, causing him to jerk his head down behind the rise he was lying against. Longarm ran hard, tracing a zigzagging pattern in case the man opened up on him again. A Big Fifty could shoot upward of a thousand yards, and the .50-caliber cartridges loaded with ninety grains of black powder, designed for penetrating a thick buffalo hide, would punch a fist-sized hole in a man. Longarm made it across the wash with the ambusher triggering only two rounds well behind him, while Haven was apparently reloading the Winchester. Longarm ran to the base of one of the hills, hunkered low, and looked up over his left shoulder, holding his Colt straight up in his right hand. He couldn’t see the ambusher from this angle, but the bastard was near.
