From the author of Montana Dawn—a Booklist Top 10 Westerns of the Decade—comes a story of vengeance, courage, and the savagery of the Old West…

When they put Ehron Lee Burrows away for a crime he didn’t commit, they had no idea what the hellish desert prison would do to the once decent man. Escaping with the help of a murderous convict, Ehron Lee sets his mind to getting revenge on the two men he holds responsible for his imprisonment. Kidnapping their loved ones, he sets a ransom that can’t be paid in cash…but in lives.

But there is an even more dangerous threat to the huddled group of kidnappers and captives: an Apache uprising has cut them off from all help. As the danger grows, the group’s members are forced to work together—or face annihilation… Praise for the western novels of Stone Wallace

“This unusual Western mines some fairly fresh ground...The plot is engaging in a Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid kind of way.”—Booklist

“Stone Wallace will become an institution to Western fans.” —Tommy Lightfoot Garrett, San Francisco News
