Dusty Fog's Civil War

All through the war, Belle Boyd, the Rebel Spy, had hoped to meet Tollinger and Barmain, the leaders of the mob which had murdered her parents and burned her home to the ground. At last, with the war over, she found them. Accompanied by the Ysabel Kid and his father, Belle set out to take her revenge.

A mercenary General in Mexico offered to use his army for the Confederate cause. Belle Boyd, the Rebel Spy, received orders to deliver $15,000.00 as payment for his services. Helping her rode two tough Texans, the Ysabel Kid and his father. When word of it leaked out, the worst rabble of murderous thieves the bloody border between Texas and Mexico ever saw.

A raid on a Union convoy turns out more profitable than anyone could have imagined. A trunk containing a fortune in Confederate currency is among the bounty. But when the money is discovered to be counterfeit, the Yankees' diabolical plot becomes obvious--flood the South with worthless money and wreck the already fragile economy. Dusty Fog must smash the counterfeit - or die trying!

The US Confederacy needs arms. European merchants are demanding gold for their goods. Though gold may be scarce in Dixie, there's no shortage of courage. Belle Boyd joins Dusty Fog in a daring plot to finance a shipment of rifles with stolen Yankee dollars. Together they trade gunfire with Union troops—and with the most treacherous collection of riffraff ever to fall below the Mason-Dixon Line.

It was the deadliest weapon in the West--a gun that could down a whole regiment, a whole Indian tribe of a whole town without even trying. They called it the Devil Gun. Captain Dusty Fog of the Texas Light Cavalry had orders to capture that gun from a pair of Union Army fanatics--and out to stop him was the entire strength of the war-crazy Indian nations. The odds were not good. But Dusty had no c

At the head of the hard riding, harder-fighting Company ‘C’ of the Texas Light Cavalry, a young Confederate States’ Army captain played havoc with the Yankees in Arkansas. He struck when least expected, with the raging fury of a Texas twister, and left destruction as great as any whirlwind in his wake. General Trumpeter, commanding the Union’s Army of Arkansas, issued an order: Kill Dusty Fog!

Amid the rage of civil war, Captain "Dusty" Fog laid down his arms in truce for the sake of an enemy soldier. Fog felt that it was a matter of honor that he should challenge the charges. Dusty soon made a shocking discovery—Union fanatics were experimenting with barbaric forms of warfare. Should he break the truce and expose the horrific plans? It was a matter of honor ... and time was short!

Dusty Fog: a man with a magic hand that could draw, shoot and hit his mark in less than a second. Dusty killed quick. His opponents died slow...slow getting their six-shooter clear of leather. In the wild, lawless west he was riding hell-bent for justice...to save a man from hanging, to catch a pair of killers, and to pay a bushwhacker with bullets from Texas’s fastest gun.

Lately the war's becoming mighty confusing. Especially for a Confederate Captain named Fog. First there's the Union scout who ends up saving his life. Then there's the fanatical Yankee hell-bent on taking it. In between there's a vicious band of Rebel misfits thirsty for blood--anybody's. It all adds up to one thing Dusty's always known for certain: a blazing Colt speaks a language all understand.

It was the Parrot 30-Pounder rifled cannon. Eleven feet long, it weighted more than four tons and could throw a devastating shell more than two miles. It was a piece of pure Yankee hell...And now the Union troops were using the Big Gun to bombard Rebel forces along the Arkansas line. Only Yankees would think of toting the Big Gun around. And only Dusty Fog could put it out of service...

If the Yankee sharpshooter killed the right officer, the Union Army’s victory at the Battle of Martin’s Hill would be guaranteed. He took his shot and killed the Rebel cavalry’s commanding officer. Bad mistake. Because that meant First Lieutenant Dusty Fog was now in command. Together with his Texas Light Cavalry there was going to be hell to pay for the Bluebellies.

During the US Civil War, Belle had seen her parents killed in cold blood by agents from the North. Driven by her desire for revenge, she joined the Great Cause. That took her into the heart of a nation cleaved in two, and closer to her parents’ killers. Joining the Secret Service of the Confederacy, she pitted her courage, wits and fighting skills against the Union's best agents.
