Spur Award winner Jory Sherman has been called "a national treasure" by best-selling author Loren D. Estleman. Originally a poet, Sherman crafts his Westerns with a dazzling style of prose that has earned rave reviews from critics and peers alike. Word on the Owlhoot Trail says Jed Brand is a cattle rustler and a murderer of three men-one of them his brother Dan. But the truth is, the ruthless Silas Colter is behind the crimes.
