A New York Times Bestselling Author
Territorial marshals Virgil Cole and Everett Hitch thought things had calmed down in Appaloosa, until Augustus Nobel Driggs rolled into town.

Now Driggs and a pack of cold-blooded convicts are on the loose and it'd up to any and all territorial lawmen to capture them.

Review
"Knott nails the terse, wise-guy dialogue....Just damngood reading and painfully suspenseful."--Booklist
"Robert Knott knows how to create atmospheric scenes...the key ingredient in a great western thriller."--Mystery Tribune"A classic plot and plenty of 8-gauge shotgun showdowns best enjoyed by those who've followed Cole and Hitch's previous adventures."--Kirkus Reviews "Rapid-fire dialogue and quick-paced action." -Historical Novels Review Praise for Robert B. Parker's Blackjack
"Knott...adds a new wrinkle here with a damn fine mystery running parallel to the western story....Fine reading for western fans."--Booklist "This is the most satisfying of Knott's Cole-Hitch tales, with a shocking double-twist ending."--The Sacramento Bee "Westerns need atmosphere as much as story, and Knott has a knack for six-gun verisimilitude, sketching the land and summer heat, the horses and the shopkeepers. Knott's especially good with the prototypical Old West marshal, Virgil Cole, 'perfectly present in the here and now, ' every inch stoic lawman....His tale gallops along without confusing readers new to the series....A darn good way to pass an afternoon."--Kirkus Reviews
