    About this ebook

    Jason Talon, a physically scared and wounded Union Civil War veteran arrives in Fort Gibson, OK, a Confederate town during the war. He is searching for John Kelly...a man he's never meant. Karl, the town drunk and deputy sheriff, warns Talon away, but he has a debt to pay and won't be deterred from his quest. With the help of Doc Benson, his only friend, he continues to search for Kelly.

    Paul Tidwell, who owns the town and knows about Kelly, sends his henchmen to stop or kill Talon, but Talon prevails. Red, the pretty gal from Tidwell's saloon and the only other person in town to speak kindly to Talon, agrees to help Talon. She takes him to find Kelly...but Tidwell is also there. Will Talon find Kelly and pay his debt?

    This action packed page turner will keep you spell bound start to finish.
