Summary

Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, "Vengeance is mine, I will repay." Romans 12:19

VOL. I: BLOOD RED MOON
Follow the brothers as they journey west to California. Gold and fortune await, but so too does the blood moon – an omen warning death follows close behind. Brotherhood has kept them together; jealousy threatens to tear them apart.

VOL. II: THE CLOCK STRIKES NOON
Trapped, guns near empty, the clock is ticking. Walker must make the choice: to do what’s easy, or to do what’s right. The railroad shines like a beacon of the modern age; for the people of Cooper’s Ridge, it brings only darkness.

VOL. III: THE RATTLESNAKE'S KISS
Hidden deep in the dust of the American West, the outlaw comes face to face with the lawman in search of justice. His life of murder is far behind, but can he ever escape the man he was born to become?


This book also includes two short stories - San Sebastian and Noche de Sangre - which expand the world of the plays.
