Synopsis: A man returns home after ten years in jail hell-bent on revenge in this Charles G. West western...
Almost ten years ago, a wild eighteen-year-old Colt McCrae was sent to jail for a crime he didn’t commit. Now he's received grim news: his estranged father has been murdered—shot in the back. His family needs Colt back home.
He returns to Whiskey Hill, Wyoming, but he’s not welcome by everyone. Colt means trouble—now more than ever. Because he knows who killed his father. Ruthless range baron Frank Drummond wants the land and will bury anyone who dares oppose him.
But now, Colt is back. And he’s no longer a kid with a chip on his shoulder. He’s a prison-hardened man with a mind for justice…
“Rarely has an author painted the great American West in strokes so bold, vivid, and true.”—Ralph Compton
