About the book
If there’s one thing Smoke Jensen despises, it’s a man who plays dirty. And there’s no one more adept at fighting dirty than a politician. Particularly a deceitful, dishonest, despicable scam artist like Senator Rex Underhill. Fortunately, with another election on the horizon, this conniving senatorial scoundrel faces some tough competition: Smoke’s long-time ally, Sheriff Monte Carson. Carson is a man of integrity, and he has Smoke’s unwavering support. However, Underhill also has his own support network: a group of mercenaries prepared to hit the campaign trail—and drench it in red with violence...
Trading firearms for votes, Underhill’s goons make it crystal clear that Sheriff Carson isn’t just a contender to watch, he’s a mark on the run. Yet, with Smoke’s grassroots backing—and his quick draw—he manages to evade danger during the race. That is, until Carson’s noble campaign takes a dangerous turn as Senator Underhill outwits his adversaries, ensnares them in a mine, and literally crushes the sheriff’s political aspirations. When the going gets tough, Smoke gets fierce. As the stakes become deadly, only the victor will survive...
