In this hardboiled, unrelenting story, U. S. Marshal Maxfield Knight is asked to trap a renegade Indian named Vincent Two Hatchets, the Tomahawk Killer, who has been robbing stagecoaches near Deadwood. Riding shotgun on a stagecoach to Cheyenne, and carrying a purported strongbox of gold as bait, Knight is soon to discover that Vincent Two Hatchets has reasons for his rampage, reasons that Knight himself understands all too well. In this gut-wrenching novel, the beleaguered U. S. Marshal learns that tragedies are often born in the ashes of broken dreams, and his own violent past haunts him every step of the way. Wounded Outlaw Books is proud to present a novel of seething anger, vengeance, and tragedy that is at once enthralling but relevant to readers of unblemished American history.
