"Never leave a devil without puttin' it in the dirt." ~First Law of the Godpistols. Gunning down fiends in the untamed West is the calling of the Godpistols, and may be Linthicum Odell's only road to redemption. A Union Army deserter, Odell figures he has plenty of sin to atone for. The path to salvation brings Odell to Gold Vein, a mining town with two afflictions: a throng of cannibal wendigo in the surrounding hills, and bands of strigoi preying on the townsfolk by night. Odell joins the defense of the town alongside Denton Folger, an upright press man from the East Coast, and his mysterious wife who holds the secrets to this valley of shadows. An army of flesh-eating wendigo, a horde of blood-sucking strigoi, and one righteous man to walk the path. Will virtue and a bag of silver bullets be enough to survive this war between devils?
