About the book
Running away from the law, Kate Coldane has worked tirelessly to build up her saloon and she's not about to let it crumble without a fight. Despite Silas Atwood being the wealthiest rancher in Hudspeth County, Kate refuses to be intimidated by him. When Atwood's henchman causes trouble at her establishment, Kate's son, Rusty, defends them by gunning him down. Although it was in self-defense, Atwood, being the law, forces Rusty to flee.
Rusty seeks refuge with his uncle, Pearlie, who plans to return to Hudspeth County to clear his nephew's name. However, Smoke Jensen, the mountain man, intervenes to prevent his friend from facing certain death. With a group of courageous individuals, Smoke launches an assault on the town to confront over two dozen of Atwood's violent followers. Arrogant and unafraid, Atwood underestimates the formidable Smoke Jensen.
