Cruel Angels Past Sundown

Written by Hailey Piper

Narrated by Jenn Lee

New Mexico Territory, 1882: She comes to the Klein ranch at sunset, a strange naked pregnant woman dragging a cavalry saber. Annette Klein and her husband have built peace between their marriage and secret relations beyond, but their serenity dies in bloodshed tonight through a cannibalistic demon and a mad preacher. Annette barely escapes the bloodbath to the nearby town of Low' s Bend, where she might find safety with a shotgun-toting barkeep, two no-nonsense boarding room ladies, and the gunslinging bounty hunter who' s captured Annette' s heart. But hell is at her heels. If she' s going to survive until dawn, she' ll have to forget everything she knows about peace and mercy, and face a hollow malevolence more ancient and ruthless than she' s ever imagined.
