Dead or Alive: A Wild West Omnibus by British author and journalist Christopher Kenworthy (official website), not to be confused with the namesake England-born Australian author and director who has the Wikipedia and ISFDB entries, is an omnibus edition of three of his western historical action adventure novels, free for a limited time courtesy of publisher Endeavour Press' Pioneering imprint.

This contains the following standalone novels, two originally published by Robert Hale as part of their Black Horse Western line: No Surrender from 1985 under the title A Hot Day in Hammerhead using the pseudonym C. Kay & Fight or Die from 2007 under the title Guns Along the Gila using the pseudonym Walt Masterton; and also Shoot To Kill from 2013 published by Endeavour themselves.

Currently free @ Amazon (available to Canadians & in the UK and pretty much everywhere else that Amazon sells worldwide, since this is being done via their KDP Select exclusive-or-else program)

If it happens you like this and wish to read more, it looks as though several of the author's other western novels from Endeavour are discounted to just 99 cents at the moment.

Description
Dead or Alive sees three of bestselling western author Christopher Kenworthy’s wild west adventures brought together in one epic collection.

NO SURRENDER

There's no surrender in the Wild West…

Morton Tolliver thought he had fixed the problem of ownership of the Flying V the day he sent his men to wipe out Francisco Villa and his family.

But he couldn't be more wrong.

The murder of Villa sparks the beginning of a war, which bursts into flames the day a quiet stranger rode into the town of Hammerhead asking after his good friend Francisco.

Barn Milburn isn’t afraid of Tolliver.

Nor any of the hired guns he has drafted in to protect his land empire.

And the scene is set for a showdown between Tolliver and Milburn - with victory the reward for the quick and death the penalty for the slow.

But who will be victorious in the end?

FIGHT OR DIE

The Sonoran Desert has claimed many lives…

Desperate to get to California before the little money they have runs out, the Wheatley family brave the Badlands and vanish into the dust.

Army scout John Best, takes it upon himself to go and find them - but he's too late to save them all.

The parents have been brutally murdered by Apaches and Best only finds teenage Lucien alive and the body of his beautiful sister, Emma, is still missing.

Has she escaped or has she been captured by the ruthless Apaches?

Together Lucien and Best set out to find and rescue her. But the trail is dangerous and they soon realise that they have more than one enemy in the desert.

Best and Lucien have no one to depend on but themselves.

Can they make it out alive and rescue Emma Wheatley before it's too late?

Or will she be one more victim of the harsh desert?

SHOOT TO KILL

Trouble is brewing in the west…

Carnigan, a lone rider travelling through the mountains of Colorado, wants to build a ranch and forget his troubled past.

But the steep ranges are overrun with Apache who will shoot without question and without mercy.

And that’s not the only enemy that Carnigan faces.

When a commander’s beautiful daughter is kidnapped by outlaws, it’s up to Carnigan to bring her back.

But at what risk?

Without knowing who to trust Carnigan finds himself caught in the middle of a dangerous power play.

Fighting for his life, Carnigan soon realises that he must either shoot to kill or be killed himself.
