As the new sheriff of Yellowstone County, Montana, ex-rancher Herschel Baker cleaned up the badlands with the weight of the law behind himโand the weight of a six-gun at his side. Now he's trying to solve a deadly puzzle that involves one lead-laden corpse, a large sum of missing cash, and a loose end that points to cattle rustling. But his trouble hasn't even arrived yet.
There's a hard-as-nails, border-hopping horse thief riding up from Mexico. He's bringing a woman on the run, a body count of criminals he's killed for bounty, and a gun hand as hard and quick as Herschel's. This man is no simple robber, shootist, or brigand for hire. His name is Thurman Baker.
But Herschel calls himย fatherโฆ
