Synopsis

Ralph Compton's USA Today best-selling Westerns draw praise for their hard-hitting plots and rough-hewn characters. His legacy carries on through the talented pen of Joseph A. West. Passing through Crooked Creek, Utah, Chance Tyree runs afoul of the law, and soon finds himself on the wrong end of a hanging rope. Only Owen Fowler can help him. But is Owen a friend or is he the harbinger of even greater trouble for Chance?
