While it's obvious that Gabe Beck is a killer, it's unclear how he goes about his business. Are his methods supernatural? Is Gabe himself more than human? For certain, the good citizens of Eden, Arizona, (circa 1880) have nothing to fear from the stranger in their midst. But the same can't be said for the Choctaw Kid and his ilk. Can Gabe keep the townsfolk from harm? Will he finally find the redemption he seeks? Can the love of a woman save him? How high will the body-count go? These and other questions will be answered in The Angel of Death.
