The baddest men in the West battle for their lives against a
relentless band of bloodthirsty prairie rats in Fort Misery--first in an
electrifying new Western series from National Bestselling Authors
William W. Johnstone and J.A. Johnstone.
JOHNSTONE COUNTRY.
WHERE THE LAND IS UNTAMED--AND SO ARE THE DESPERADOS.
Captain Peter Joseph Kellerman was once a promising career soldier who'd
proven his mettle in battle time and again. Now he's fighting a battle
with a whiskey bottle. He's also in charge of Fort Benjamin Grierson,
located west of hell, deep in Arizona Territory's Mohawk Valley on the
arid edge of the Yuma desert. The men under his command aren't fit to
wear the uniform. Killers, thieves, and ravagers condemned to death but
who've chosen to serve, holding down the hated Fort Misery.
Santiago Lozado, the most wanted bandit on both sides of the border, has
set his sights on Fort Misery. He wants vengeance against Kellerman for
killing his son and has raised an army of brutal Apaches and Comancheros
to slaughter every man wearing Union blue--only to encounter a wild
bunch of desperate men unafraid of shedding blood and fighting to the
death . . .
