A bounty on his head. A mission with no guarantees. A woman who might be his last chance.
Shawnee has spent years running-slipping through shadows, always just ahead of the law. Once, he was Alonzo Pearce: outlaw, marked man. Now, he's a ghost nobody can catch. Except the new governor of New Mexico, Lew Wallis. Facing a territory on the brink of chaos, Wallis offers Shawnee a deal-amnesty in exchange for one last job. Infiltrate a ruthless criminal network and take down the man who wants to claim New Mexico for himself.
Enter Randi Swayze, a sharp-eyed Pinkerton agent with a reputation for relentless pursuit. Sent to find Shawnee and deliver the offer, she expects a simple mission-until Shawnee's secrets pull her into a world where lawmen blur with outlaws, and justice is a dangerous gamble.
Now Shawnee must decide-accept the governor's offer and risk losing everything or reject it and remain a hunted man forever. Can a man with blood on his hands ever find peace in a land that demands loyalty and vengeance in equal measure?
But peace doesn't come easy to men like Shawnee-and trust even less so. As he and Randi are drawn deeper into the treacherous underworld threatening the territory, old enemies resurface and new betrayals cut deep. Bound by duty but torn by suspicion, they'll have to rely on each other to survive. In the lawless heart of the West, the line between salvation and damnation is just one bullet wide.
