Synopsis: Longarm has worn out his welcome…
It should have been a routine prisoner pickup. But when Deputy U.S. Marshal Custis Long arrives in Curen Town, the young offender’s father—who happens to run the town named after him—has no intentions of letting his son go to Denver for trial. When bribery and deception fail, Edward Curen, Sr., resorts to more desperate measures to stop Longarm—namely a $5,000 bounty on the lawman’s head.
Money like that is enough to turn decent townsfolk blood simple—and it does. Now every dark alley of Curen Town may be hiding an assassin—man, woman, or child—and if Longarm aims to leave town in one piece, he’ll need to shoot his way out…
