Ninety years. Gone. Swallowed whole by the vast, unforgiving maw of the West. The Toomey brothers, twenty-five souls, and a river of four thousand cattle, vanished into thin air, a ghost story whispered on the wind. Then, a lifeline: an invitation to the Toomey ranch, a chance to unravel the century-old enigma. For Dan Sheridan, writer and historian, it was a siren's call, a plunge into the heart of a legend.

But the ranch's current lord, a man carved from granite and steeped in suspicion, held no love for ink-stained scribblers. Books, he scoffed, were for fools who couldn't handle the raw truth of the frontier. Dan, however, was about to discover that the truth wasn't confined to dusty pages. It lurked in the shadows, a predator stalking its prey.

Suddenly, the tales he'd penned were no longer fiction. He was living them, hunted through the brutal wilderness by killers ripped from the most savage chapters of his own imagination. The air crackled with danger, the sun beat down on a landscape that promised only death. But these villains, these relics of a bygone era, had made a fatal miscalculation.

Dan Sheridan wasn't some soft-handed academic. He was a man who understood the language of the wild, a survivor forged in the fires of research and honed by the thrill of the chase. He wasn't just writing about the Old West; he was about to become a legend of it. They wanted to erase him from the story? They were about to learn that Sheridan wrote his own ending, and it would be written in lead and grit.
