About the book
Johnstone Country. The old perish early. The wicked perish even earlier.
When Smoke Jensen receives a call to assist a besieged small town in Texas threatened by a group of bloodthirsty bandits, brave volunteers step up to take on the challenge of confronting the Mountain Man. And being who he is, Smoke wouldn't have it any other way.
After a gunshot wound leaves Audubon, Texas without its fearless sheriff, Clete Lanagan and his gang of criminals come up with a plan to rob the town bank of a significant sum of railroad money. When the interim sheriff, Dalton Conyers - who happens to be Smoke's niece Rebecca's half-brother - struggles to gather a posse to track down Lanagan's crew, he turns to Smoke for assistance.
However, Lanagan isn't willing to surrender easily with so much money on the line. With a bounty on his head, Smoke becomes a target for a renowned gunslinger, an angry ranch hand seeking vengeance for his brother's death, and a group of eager gunmen with nothing to lose except their own lives.
