In RETURN TO DODGE, James Arness returns in his most famous role as Marshal Matt Dillon. Now retired, Dillon is stabbed in a fight with a band of thieves. When word reaches Miss Kitty in New Orleans, she returns to Dodge to be by his side. However, danger strikes again as an old enemy from his past is released from prison and vows to settle the score. In THE LAST APACHE, Marshal Matt Dillon, now retired, is summoned to the ranch of a long-lost love, only to find it in smoldering ruins after an Apache raid. He is shocked to learn of a daughter he'd never known -- and that she was kidnapped in the raid. Now he must save her from the fierce renegade Apache warrior who stole her away. And in TO THE LAST MAN, ex-Marshal Matt Dillon finds himself in the middle of a bloody range war. With vigilante ranchers on his back and a headstrong daughter on his tail, Matt takes up the fight to restore peace with his own brand of law and order.
