"Strong and true with fistfuls of action
and precise, vibrant language.”
—Matthew P. Mayo, Spur Award-winning author of Tucker's Reckoning 

Lucas Fume has had plenty of fights in his life: spying for the Confederate Army, standing up to the railroad company when it tried to take his land, then getting framed for the murder of his business partner—only to lose his land as well as the love of his life. But Lucas isn't finished fighting yet... 

With help from Ezekiel "Zeke" Henry, a fellow inmate and former slave, Lucas manages to escape prison. Riding with Zeke to St. Louis, he soon discovers that his former partner is still alive, using a different name, and doing big business with the railroads—and he has Lucas's lost love with him. On the run from the law and up against a rich and influential enemy, Lucas is about to take on the most dangerous fight of his life.
