The first adventure in a brand new Western series from Alfred Wallon! When young Deputy Marshal Pete Hooker is brutally murdered after uncovering a plot to smuggle weapons to revolutionary Miguel Otero, hardened U.S. Marshal Jim Kennedy rides into El Paso to finish the job. But time is running out—the first shipment of rifles has already slipped through, and Otero’s blood-soaked revolution looms. Navigating a viper’s nest of smugglers, corrupt officials, and double-crossers, Kennedy battles ambushes, treachery, and his own limits to stop the next shipment. With bullets flying and trust in short supply, the line between justice and vengeance blurs. Can Kennedy outshoot El Paso’s shadows before the desert runs red? Saddle up for a tale where every shot counts… and no one escapes unscathed.
