U.S. Marshal Matt Morgan schwört, den jungen Mann, der seine Frau brutal vergewaltigt und ermordet hat, vor Gericht zu bringen – doch dessen Vater ist der mächtige Rinderbaron Craig Belden, ein langjähriger Freund Morgans. Dennoch ist Morgan fest entschlossen, den Täter mit dem 9.00-Uhr-Zug aus der Stadt zu bringen. Die Situation spitzt sich dramatisch zu, als er feststellt, dass er in Gun Hill gefangen ist – allein mit Belden, der die Einwohner tyrannisiert und sogar den Sheriff der Stadt kontrolliert, und allein mit Beldens Revolverhelden, die nur ein einziges Ziel verfolgen: Morgan zur Strecke zu bringen... Gordon D. Shirreffs, der Autor von Western-Klassikern wie Rio Bravo (1957), Judas Gun (1981) und der epischen Quint-Kershaw-Trilogie (1981 – 1984), schuf mit Der letzte Zug von Gun Hill ein eindringliches, düsteres Western-Drama, basierend auf John Sturges' gleichnamigem Film aus dem Jahr 1959. In den Hauptrollen: die Hollywood-Legenden Kirk Douglas (als Matt Morgan) und Anthony Quinn (als Craig Belden). Zum Auftakt seiner Western-Reihe präsentiert der Apex-Verlag diesen Roman als neue und ungekürzte deutsche Übersetzung, ergänzt um ein Essay von Dr. Karl Jürgen Roth. [mehr]

Admiral T.T. Jeans was a decorated British Naval officer with considerable experience in the Middle East. He wrote this fast-moving novel based on his experiences and those of his compatriots. The plot turns on efforts of Iran to stir trouble by providing arms to Middle Easter insurgents. While published in 1927, it could as well have been written about arms smuggling in the 21st century, which makes policing the waters of the Gulf a present priority. [mehr]

I had been serving in the Channel and Atlantic Fleets, continuously, for seven years—appointed from one ship to another, from a battleship to a destroyer, from a destroyer to an armoured cruiser, and from her to the _Russell_. In fact, I began to wonder whether my whole naval career was to be spent plodding round the British Islands, and the limits of my world were to be bounded by an occasional view of the coast of France, and a still more infrequent sight of the rugged headlands of Spain.
