It's Hell in the high country… When Skye Fargo comes across a dead young man near the town of Cawthorne, Colorado, he figures he'll do the real thing and bring the body to town for burial. But he learns soon enough that dying has been real easy to do in Cawthorne lately. Someone in town has developed a taste for murder—and the Trailsman might just be the next course…

Some paths you don't take—you survive. Fargo is in the last place he wants to be—Sioux country. He's guiding a blustery U.S. Senator from back east, his beautiful new wife, and their bratty daughter on a hunting party through the territory at the senator's insistence. But the Sioux are being led by Little Face—a medicine man of great power, dangerous magic, and a blood-curdling hatred of the Trailsman…

The war is over, but the fight has just begun in this western in Ralph Compton's USA Today bestselling series. They came back from the war, and their land was gone. The Texas soil they’d nourished with years of backbreaking work had been snatched away. And in a moment of fury at this Yankee plunder, Mark Rogers and Bill Harder cut down a pair of tax collectors…and wound up behind bars in Fort Worth. But then the former Confederate soldiers are offered a choice: they can face their sentences—or infiltrate a gang of whiskey runners who’ve been evading the law between St. Louis and Fort Smith. If they succeed, they’ll gain their freedom…and their confiscated land. But when they meet up with Wolf Estrello and his fellow bandits, they just might wish they’d taken their chances with the firing squad… More Than Six Million Ralph Compton Books In Print!
