One helluva good book by a storyteller working at top form." --Matt Braun, Golden Spur Award-winning author of The Kincaids "Kerry Newcomb is one of those writers who lets you know from his very first lines that you're in for a ride.

Kerry Newcomb knows what he is doing, and does it enviably well." --Cameron Judd, Golden Spur Award-nominated author of Texas Freedom "A compelling mix of passion, revenge, and a gallant people's quest for freedom.
