'They'll send him next,' Perry croaked again. 'He'll come and he'll kill you all.' 'Who?' 'Ford.' Josh Ford, United States Deputy Marshal! When it comes to fighting outlaws, he's hell on wheels and this time he'll need to be. Two of their own have disappeared in the Moose River Mountains and the trail leads to Stay. A small town under the heel of a brutal vigilance committee led by a killer known only as 'The Judge'. From the moment Ford arrives, there is literally the stench of death in the air. And after being forced into a gunfight he doesn't want and then sentenced to hang, the stench only gets stronger. They were warned. They've never seen the likes of Ford!
