He'd been christened Webley Hammond Steele, but since the War Between the States he'd been known as Hawk, named for the relentless bird of prey, the killer with the midnight black wing, the lethal beak.
He was a brutal man who knew how to kill without pity. He came out of prison, escaping the hangman's noose in return for helping the law get a renegade killer. Hate welded him into a savage hunter who always got his prey.
This hunt led him on the trail of a man he'd sworn to kill for years—the sadist who'd once branded him with a hot iron, then tortured and killed the woman he loved.
No lawman's badge could keep him from the revenge he sought—or from the bloody carnage that followed in his wake!
