Western Heritage- and Western Writers of America Spur Award-winning author Dusty Richards unleashes the epic beginning to the O Malley family saga, a new western classic set in the lawless sprawl of an unforgettable Texas . . .
As Civil War bloodies the nation s ground, Texas Rangers Harp and Long John O Malley patrol a vast, unguarded range, picking off the brutal Comanche while protecting the families of soldiers off fighting at the front.
Bullet by bullet the O Malleys distinguish themselves as two of the bravest gunfighters to ever wear the Ranger s star. At war s end, the Rangers are disbanded, but Harp and Long John are not through fighting yet. They sign on with a cattle drive that will take them across the most treacherous and deadly stretch of the American frontier: the long trail from Texas to Sedalia. Beset by ruthless enemies inside and outside the camp, Harp and Long John aim dead straight for the future where a great ranching fortune awaits back in a Texas they will change forever."
