"Lone Star Sheriff Cullen McCabe has always been a risk-taker. Butsometimes, taking a risk means taking a bullet unless you kill first ... Sheriff McCabe knew he'd make a lot of enemies when he agreed to be a special agent for the Texas governor. But now that he's managed to keep the peace in the hopeless town of New Hope, he's hoping he can go home to Two Forks and get back to business as usual. No such luck. The corrupt marshal of East City, Micah Moran, and his murdering band of kill-crazy cutthroats are running wild, leaving the folks in East City in a deadly grip of terror. Now, Two Forks will have to wait because Micah Moran and his evil gang need to be taught some manners--with McCabe's own brand of retribution"--

There are a million ways to die in the great state of Texas. And on the lawless streets of New Hope, the odds are even worse. Once the home of Comanche, the region has been up for grabs since the settlers drove off the natives. Now it's a magnet for settlers looking for cheap land, merchants looking to exploit its resources--and outlaws looking for a place to hide in between robbing and killing. With shootouts and showdowns being a nightly occurrence, it's one of the deadliest places on earth. And the governor ain't happy about it. He wants to clean up the town. He wants to wipe away the scum knows just the man to do it.
