A blazing new chapter in the epic Byrnes family saga from Western
Heritage and Western Writers of America Spur Award-winning author Dusty
Richards . . .
Born out of the grit, sweat, and drive of a cattle ranching empire, U.S.
Marshal Chet Byrnes is turning the savage and lawless Arizona desert
into a homeland. To some he's the hero that the West needs. To others,
he's a moving target.
Chet is spearheading a stage line from Gallup to the Colorado River.
It'll be a boon to Navajo trading posts, and lay out the territory for
new settlements. Unfortunately, it's not Gerald Hall's idea of
progress--killing Chet is. The mysterious Texas gambler has hired three
kill-crazy assassins--and counting--to bury Chet under a storm of
bullets. To turn the tables on a game of revenge, Chet has to match the
deranged Texan play by play, body by body, and bullet for bullet. Come
hell or high water, that stage line is going through--even if it's
forged in blood.
