As the locals gear up to stop the railroad, long-held secrets about both the town and Hugh's own family come to light, and Hugh is caught up in the conflict to save his home town, and his familys legacy. With an all-new introduction to the Baen Ebook Edition! Clay Reynolds is the winner of the Western Writers of America Spur Award. "This is Reynoldss fourth novel about the dusty, hot, and sleepy West Texas town of Agatite, a faded stewpot of roiling passions, savage gossip, and crooked politics. . . .

Reynolds spins a compelling yarn."¾Publishers Weekly At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (DRM Rights Management). "Ambitious and absorbing."¾Larry McMurtry "Ingenious . . . Leaves readers gasping and eager for more."¾Stephen King
