Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes fate rides a man down a violent road… Jake Horn was a healer—until he was falsely accused of murder and had to run. Now the hands he once used to cure the ailing have a new purpose: wrapped around the handles of twin six-guns. A GOOD MAN IN A BAD TOWN Aptly named, the town of Sweet Sorrow, within the Dakota territories, is the kind of place that draws all manner of mis­fits, drunks, gamblers, and dreamers—a perfect town for Jake Horn to get lost in. But a strange plague of madness, brutality, and murder seems to run rampant here—and a slippery Texan named Roy Bean is pressuring Jake to bring a much-needed sanity to the lawless outpost. But accepting the job of Marshal could be the last humani­tarian act Jake ever performs. Because thunder is rumbling on the horizon—and a famous bounty hunter from Bismarck is rolling in on the evening stage, determined to collect the substantial reward being offered for bringing the fugitive Jake Horn in stone-cold dead.

Book excerpt: Author of the Dakota Lawman series As Nate Love placed the flowers on his murdered son’s grave, he thought that he shouldn't have had a son so late in his life. He wondered who it was would shoot that boy in the back over one damn cow? It was the cruelest of fates, he thought, not to know who did it. A dead boy should be able to tell who it was. There ought to at least be that kind of justice in the world. He knew there wasn't, though. He would have to find it for himself. But how could he do it alone? He wasn't what he once was; he was just old bones now.... That was when he went and wrote a letter to Monroe Hawks—"the meanest son of a bitch that ever lived." When they rode for Hanging Judge Parker, they were respected by the godfearing and the godless alike. But that was then.... Now, both are long past their prime. Both know that soon they are going to be facing younger, stronger, faster men. And both Monroe Hawks and Nate Love know they won't be coming back....

Book excerpt: IT WAS SOMETHING LIKE JUSTICE… AND SOMETHING LIKE REVENGE. GUNMAN They came to the frontier to escape their pasts and build their future. They came as cowhands, gamblers, homesteaders, and whores. Among them were those who would kill for pleasure or a price—and those, like Quint McCannon, who hunted killers down. LAWMAN It was a long, hard ride from Deadwood to Cheyenne, and when McCannon arrived, he was greeted by the worst news a man could hear: his best friend and partner had been murdered. Now, McCannon—a man who knows violence, friendship, and the empty places in between is heading on a trail across the frontier in search of a maddog killer. DEAD MAN Forced to choose between a good woman in Nebraska and the obsession that's eating away at his soul, McCannon shares his journey with a curious-minded Texan named Jake True, a lovesick whore named Sugar Brown, and a host of misfits, tale tellers, fugitives and gunslingers, from Roy Bean to an actor named Cody. For McCannon, it's a journey through the madness and glory of the West—to one moment with a gun...

Book excerpt: Bill Doolin was perhaps the last great American outlaw of the nineteenth century. Once part of the Doolin-Dalton gang, he rode and robbed in the wild Indian Territory that would become Oklahoma. The Daltons were eventually shot to ribbons in their failed attempt to rob two banks at once in Coffeyville, Kansas. But Doolin went on to form a new gang that included notables such as Bitter Creek Newcomb, Black Face Charlie Pierce, a remaining Dalton brother, and the Rose of the Cimarron, Rose Dunn, sister of the notorious Dunn Brothers. Pursuing the gang was a tenacious group of U.S. marshals led by the famed Bill Tilghman. Doolin was considered something of a Robin Hood to the locals—everybody but those he robbed and killed. The marshals were determined to end his reign of terror no matter how long it took. The country, after all, was heading into a new century, and outlaws like Doolin no longer had a place in the West.

Book excerpt: Quint McCannon would ride a thousand miles to find a woman—and the man who wanted her dead... MEN WENT CRAZY Quint McCannon had fought and survived the Civil War—and faced killers and madmen across the frontier. But nothing had prepared him for one brutal winter in Cheyenne. Or for a story told by a Texas Ranger: about a woman McCannon had once loved—who was now running for her life. With nothing left to keep him in Wyoming, with a Texas Ranger and a one-armed Denver dandy by his side, McCannon is riding out of Cheyenne, crossing Bill Cody's Nebraska, the Earp brothers' Dodge City, Bill Hickok's Kansas. But a thousand miles of dancing prairie grass, howling thunderstorms, whores, renegades, and murderers lie before him. For Quint McCannon, finding a woman on the run means going up against the ghosts of his own past and a bloodlusting killer—all the way to the Rio Grande.

Book excerpt: A LEGENDARY GUNMAN IS MAKING HIS LAST STAND IN JAKE HORN'S TOWN . . . AND HE’S NOT AIMING TO DIE ALONE. Jake Horn once used his hands to heal—now the same hands kill. He was on the dodge for a crime he didn't commit when the town of Sweet Sorrow took him in and rewarded him with a badge he never wanted. Still, this out-of-the-way Dakota hellhole is a good place for a man to get lost in—until legendary gunfighter William Sunday rides up with a price on his head, followed by a parade of bounty hunters, criminals, and cold-blooded killers. A feared gun artist with a murderous rep, suffering from an illness he knows will soon claim his life, Sunday is determined to reconcile with his daughter before his own body does him in. Meanwhile, every human reptile in the territories is closing in for the kill, leaving lawman Jake no choice but a suicidal duty: to stand side-by-side with a dead man who has nothing left to lose.
