Quick Hands

Survival was tough in the mining camps of the Colorado Rockies in the late 1800s. On the lonely, rugged trails that ran between camps, it sometimes got even tougher.
As a take-on-all-comers boxing champ who headlined a traveling medicine show, McMahon knew all about surviving in the ring. He could always count on his training and physical skills—foremost being the amazing quickness in his hands—to gain him a victory.
But out on the trail, where there were no rules and conflict wasn't neatly contained inside a boxing ring, McMahon suddenly discovered it was going to take more than his pugilistic skills and lightning fists to save him and his companions from going down for a fatal ten-count.
