Product Description
Dan Featherskill is a plainsman and a gunslinger for hire. But recovering from a recent fistfight, he is no hurry to find employment, especially when he is approached to protect a wagon train heading west. The rumors of raiders and Comancheros on the trail seem to make his decision even easier. However, after receiving anonymous threats demanding that he stay off the trail, he changes his mind; Featherskill is never one to back down from a challenge.
Unfortunately, the travelers he has been hired to protect turn out to be less reliable and more dangerous than expected. And when a group of raiders attacks the wagons, Featherskill finds himself caught in the crosshairs of thieves, outlaws, and connivers, all intent on ridding themselves of him and stopping the wagons. Now, Featherskill must rely on his wits and his guns in a game that he is forced to play to the deadly end.
