Description

Set in the American West, a hell-bent boy and his father come up against a former marshal who isn't above breaking the law.

There's no taming Billy Blanchard. He's cut from the same rough cloth as his father, Jacob, the man who built the town of Black Horse Creek from nothing. Jacob takes pride in Billy's lawless, wild ways. But when the boy returns home with a stolen horse, having just killed a US Marshal, Jacob knows trouble will be coming.

Called in on special assignment, enigmatic former deputy marshal Grayson is asked to find Billy. The marshals would prefer to have him brought in alive. But Grayson knows Billy. He knows Billy's father. And he knows that things don't always go the way the law would like.

Author: West, Charles G.
Charles G. West arrived on the Western literary scene in 1998 with his first novel, "Stone Hand", the first of a three-book series featuring Jason Coles, master tracker. The public response to that series called for more Western fiction by West, who now has written over thirty novels. Inspired in his youth by great adventure authors like A. B. Guthrie, Jr., and Vardis Fisher, West has always sought to be true to the men and women who braved the dangers of the savage frontier that was ultimately forged to become the American West. His novels are classified as historical Westerns due to his diligent research of the times as well as the people.
