The first adventure in a brand new Western series from D.M. Haggard!
Forced to leave home at fifteen in the wake of a terrible crime, Rex Steele is no stranger to vigilante justice. He’s found a haven in northern Montana, herding cattle and breaking horses at the Triple Seven Ranch for the past ten years. And if his work for the ranch’s owner sometimes includes chasing down cattle thieves and putting them six feet under, well, that’s all right by Rex… until a hunt for rustlers fleeing toward Canada with thirty head of stolen stock brings Rex face-to-face with evil.
The Native peoples call them “skinwalkers”—shape-shifting shamans who harm and kill instead of heal, and who acquire their dark powers through acts of murder. Two of them make Rex their victim, drugging him and branding him with mystical symbols so they can claim his soul. Only when their dark magic wears off does Rex remember what they did to him. Driven by rage and a thirst for vengeance, he embarks on a dangerous quest to find the skinwalkers and give them what they deserve… if they don’t destroy him first.
