Bones Don't Lie by James Duermeyer

Bones Don't Lie, Book Four, in the Nathan Wolf series: When U.S. Marshal Nathan Wolf is contacted by a rancher regarding the disappearance of horses, he soon finds that there is far more at stake than a few head of livestock. He comes face to face with a bullying outlaw named Ivan Malone who intends to steal the third-generation ranch from its rightful owners through guile, theft, threats, extortion, and ultimately murder of the ranch owners. To further complicate the situation, the list of characters who wish to seek revenge and kill the outlaw continues to grow and includes a nearby Comanche Chief, a prospector’s young son, and the outlaw’s own mother. With the help of his Texas Ranger friend Ben Steele, it is all Marshal Wolf can do to keep the revenge-minded folks from taking the law into their own hands before the outlaw is brought to justice. But, the road to justice and revenge can take many dangerous and dramatic turns as Marshal Wolf discovers.
