A Carson Stone Western (Book 1)
Former thief and wanted man Carson Stone dreams of a peaceful life on a ranch built by his own hands. To earn a stake, he rides west to collect the reward on a claim-jumper. When Stone steps in to defend a family ambushed by murdering marauders, he makes a terrifying discovery: one of the hired killers carries a death list full of names and dollar amounts. But the names on this list belong to upstanding citizens, not criminals. When the local sheriff is gunned down, Stone takes on the one job he never wanted. A gang of killers are storming back to finish their work - and Carson Stone has just moved to the top of the list.
