A fugitive is trapped between a rock and a hard place in this action packed Western from Charles G. West.

On the run for a murder he didn’t commit, Matt Slaughter is lying low in the badlands with a new life, and a new woman. But old troubles are right behind him: her name is P.D. Wildmoon, a hard-drinking bounty huntress armed with a .44, a rawhide horsewhip, and three wild-eyed sons bred to kill. Their job? Bring Slaughter back to Virginia—dead or alive.

Making matters worse is a Sioux war that has Slaughter caught between the vengeance of a hostile tribe and the blind greed of a gun-crazy mother who’s blocking his only way out. But for Slaughter, there’s even more at stake. By his side is Molly, the vulnerable love of his life. And she’s just the pretty little tool Wildmoon and her killer brood need for hitting Slaughter straight through the heart. PRAISE FOR THE NOVELS OF CHARLES G. WEST
