SPUR AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR

Dave Kralick was a big man, heavy-boned and violent. He had to be to stay alive in the brawling, untamed Oregon Territory, where every man was his own law. But even Kralick wasn't tough or shrewd enough to match the treachery of a friend. From the night his sister Judy was betrayed by the man she loved, Kralick was a man who lived only to destroy. He was cold, ruthless, the way a man got when he knew he either had to kill or be killed.
