The last ride of the Dirty Creek Gang / William W. Johnstone and J.A. Johnstone.

Summary:

Clay Carson thought his outlaw days were behind him. Years ago, he rode with the fearsome Dirty Creek Gang -- and robbed half the banks in Texas. But then a fatally bungled heist in Fort Worth brought it all crashing down. The gang broke up, went their separate ways, and that was the end of that. But today the past came calling for Carson in the form of a telegram. It's from Lemuel Jones -- his old gang leader -- who asks him to do something reckless, stupid, and downright crazy: round up the old gang for one last ride. Jones says he hid away the gang's biggest payday from their boldest bank job, and he just needs Carson and the gang to help him get it. Carson assumed his old boss gambled it away -- and has doubts about his old gang members, too. All but one of them has gone straight, with respectable jobs like store clerk, ranch hand, and even banker. The only outlaw left has been captured and sentenced to hang. Which means the crew would have to bust him out of jail and ride off with a posse on their tail. It's crazy, all right. But the Dirty Creek Gang is just crazy enough to give it a shot -- even it's their last.
