A telegram arrives from the Northern Oklahoma Territories in Laredo for Texas Ranger Captain Bates. Marshal Jack Black is in trouble, and the only friend he has to ask for help is Rowdy. So, the Ranger sets off north on the MK&T Railroad to aid his friend, a journey that leads him to Kansas State Prison in Levine – an institution that is called the Hell-Hole by its inmates. Has the Kansas marshal finally crossed that fine gray line of the law and will he spend the rest of his life behind bars, or will Rowdy Bates and his Texas Rangers find a way to win the day and save Jack from the very outlaws he put away?
Author

Ash Lingam is an Amazon Best Selling Author. He has written over one hundred novels and short stories in the Western genre. He has published nine series about the Texas Rangers, US Marshals, and Bounty Hunters, and his new additions to the Frontier & Pioneer Western Fiction—the Mountain Men series. Ash was born on a ranch in the Midwestern United States. It was during a time when Westerns were magical both at the movies and on television. As a boy, he collected Indian arrowheads in the fields and rode his horse, Sugar, in the woods as he played cowboys and Indians. From age twelve, he hunted to put food on the family table when his grandpa, Pop, gave him his first double-barrel shotgun—at eight taught him how to trap in our ponds and the creeks at the end of our property. Growing up in the country with horses and guns made the transition to an author of the Old West an effortless journey. Some say Ash Lingam is the fastest writer in the West. Ash says; When inspiration hits me, from when I open my eyes in the morning until I fall asleep at night, I let my fingers dance across the keyboards, anxious to see what will happen next in the story in my mind’s eye.
