Book excerpt: In a land of broken promises, one man stands between white greed and red fury! COLORADO, INDIAN COUNTRY, 1879 The Milk Creek Massacre left a legacy of hatred that lies like tinder around the Territory. Any spark will set off a firestorm of vengeance. Government agent David Rand knows it will be impossible to put out the fire once it gets started. Caught between land-hungry settlers and war-hungry Utes, Rand's only hope is to tell the truth—even if the truth saves the life of the one man he'd like to see dancing at the end of a rope! When it comes to tales so vivid they seem to carry the scent of the campfire, the echo of gunfire, and the untamed spirit of the West, one storyteller stands out: Three-time Winner of the Spur Award Wayne D. Overholser Author of "West of the Rimrock" and "Draw or Drag."
