The action-packed fourth book in the exciting "Jacob Vigilante Western Adventure Series!" Jacob Blade, the half-breed vigilante, is at a cross road. He is determined to rid the West of evil, but frustrated by the futility of it all. Seeking solace, he retreats to the mountains of Colorado, where he encounters an old recluse mountain man, Reuben Bridger. After saving Jacob from a mountain lion, the old man takes him on as a student, determined to help him learn to survive in the unfamiliar environs of the mountains. Jacob finds, though, that evil exists everywhere, and he and Reuben soon find themselves facing off against a corrupt mine owner who is attempting to forcibly take over the mine belonging to a competitor. Jacob turns to what he knows, the power of the gun, to once again eliminate evil and restore order, and in the process, learns an important lesson.
