Marshal’s Dilemma

Blood Runs Cold in Grant's Crossing

Marshal "Jake" Jacobs has had to reckon with the gunfights, the blood, and the rustlers who come looking to test him. But when a hired killer shows up in Grant's Crossing with no rules, no name and no past-just a half-starved Morgan horse and a bag full of cash-Jake knows he's being hunted. Again. Only this time, it's personal. Sam Watkins, Jake's deputy and closest friend, recognizes the face on the wanted poster. The dead man was a hired gun-and someone paid him well to take a shot at Jake. When Sam's father, Mort, shows up at Sam's house, they begin to wonder if Mort was behind it. Brutal, unrepentant, and long thought dead, Mort is alive and riding with a gang brutal enough to burn a town to the ground. And he's not just coming for Jake-he's coming for the son who finally stood up to him. Now, past and present are on a collision course. Jake and Sam will have to face the man who made their childhoods utter hell-and decide how much of themselves they're willing to sacrifice to stop him.
