Samantha Neely has come West, hunting for answers about her father’s disappearance. Every trail leads to one man—Sloan Talbott, dangerous and elusive. Prepared for confrontation, Sam invades his territory armed with questions and a refusal to be intimidated.
Sloan Talbott guards his past like a fortress. He knows more than he’s saying, and he’s not the only one. As Sam digs deeper, she stirs up old rivalries and buried crimes, drawing the attention of those who’d rather see her silenced than see the truth uncovered.
In a land where justice is scarce and trust even scarcer, Sam and Sloan will have to decide whether they’re enemies, allies—or the next victims.
A gripping western tale of grit, wit, and the dangerous truths that can bind enemies—or destroy them.
