About the book
William W. Johnstone's Mountain Man series stands above the rest in the world of Western fiction, immersing readers in the life of a man who once lived outside the law but now fights for justice with everything he has.
Smoke Jensen was known as the fastest gun in the West, but he grew tired of constantly having to defend his reputation against young guns looking to make a name for themselves. Jensen decided to retire his pistols for good, or so he thought...
When a war refuses to end, a soldier never finds peace. In the wilds of South Texas, Captain Richard King established the vast Santa Gertrudis ranch. However, after the Civil War, Union troops led by a cruel killer attacked the ranch while King was away in Mexico, leaving it in ruins and its inhabitants dead. Now, thirty years later, bloodshed once again threatens King's land.
Released from prison, former Union Captain Jack Brant is eager to continue his violent spree in Texas. With King in need of help, mountain man Smoke Jensen answers the call to arms. Brant underestimates Jensen, believing one man can't stop him. He's about to learn otherwise...
