CAUTION: CONTENTS MAY BE FLAMMABLE
In the darkest days of the Civil War, Neville Goldsmith set the world on
fire. As Captain for the Union Army, he marched with General Sherman
through Georgia, setting homes and cities ablaze with sadistic glee. For
Goldsmith, starting fires was a lifelong obsession. And when the war
ended, he set his sights on the great American West--to burn it all to
the ground...
Years later, Luke Jensen learns about a series of fires wreaking havoc
from the Dakota Territory to Kansas. Each fire appears to be man-made--a
way to distract the locals while outlaws rob their banks and loot their
towns. The gang's leader is the demented firebug Goldsmith, along with
an equally psychotic partner, Trask. As their fiery reign of terror
rages out of control, Luke Jensen decides to do something crazy himself:
Infiltrate the gang--and fight fire with gunfire.
