Jim Hunter's and Matt Harrison's Double H ranch thrives ... till their crew marches away to war's glory, and rustlers burn them out, murdering their last hand, harmless oldster Walt Burridge. When the Civil War ends, the two H's start over. But for Jim, the war and the Reconstruction have wrought changes beyond endurance. His former sweetheart, pretty Alice Cornhill, has been claimed by another. So Jim rides out and into the arms of his wartime love, the gun-running adventuress Lena-Marie Baptiste. Quickly trapped by a vow to avenge Old Walt, Jim has to choose between enmity and love, life and death!
BONUS FEATURE: "The Heart of a Western" explores what preserves the genre's relevancy for fresh generations of readers, writers, and movie-makers.
"Peace at Any Price is an intelligent and finely wrought western adventure, told in the traditional pulp style ... character-driven, superbly realized, and highly entertaining. The story is near epic. Recommended for readers that love a great story told well." -Thomas P McNulty
"Writer O'Keefe is a winner. Twists and turns so I never knew what would happen next, least of all the ending. Light-hearted Jim and serious Matt may start with a ranch together, but may not both survive the Civil War ... Ambush, fire, flood, shootout, escape, split, injury. Not in that order. Thrilling action. Western talk, morals, setting." - Anne Patkau at Goodreads
"If you want a well-paced story with character, you can't go wrong if you choose a Chap O'Keefe book. His characters aren't all good or all bad. This is a human story about love, romance, passion, greed, betrayal and ego that just happens to be set in the historical Wild West." - Nik Morton, author of Write a Western in 30 Days
