Nancy Nobody



She was the fastest gun in the state, but because men have a habit of working out ways to pretend women don’t count, the fact that she’d never killed a man proved she clearly wasn’t. The ten men who had died near her died for unrelated reasons.

The town didn’t have a sheriff, since the townsfolk were just so darn honest, and not because she kept watch over the town and would often find criminals captured when nearby lawmen came to visit, purely coincidentally.

Then she fell in love. With the mistress of the brothel.

The town ignored that too.
