Synopsis: When his family was attacked by Arapahos, Jared Sunnedon saw his parents slaughtered. He and his sister Kate made it out alive, only to be taken prisoner. Then and there, they vowed that if they were ever separated, they’d never give up the search for each other. After Kate was captured by Utes and sold off, Jared made good on his promise and escaped. But the hunt put a hard edge on the young man. He’s gotten a reputation as a bitter mad-dog killer. That’s the way Jared likes it. Because there’s no man alive—and no stretch of wasted desert or backwater dirt town—that’s going to come between Jared and the only family’s he’s got left.
