Fiction. Western. Thriller. Historical Fiction. HTML:A crew of gunslingers take on a deadly challenge in this Ralph Compton western.
 
They are four hired guns who haul freight for a price into the treacherous, untamed wilderness. Having already risked their lives for the Confederacy, now theyâ??re fighting for themselvesâ??and for a stake in the futureâ??on the great frontier. Led by the poker-playing Faro Duval, these soldiers of fortune are about to take the biggest gamble of all: delivering an explosive cargo from Santa Fe to southwestern Utah. Their destination is Devilâ??s Canyonâ?¦and a mountain of gold.
 
But thereâ??s a wild card in the crew: a man who is one jump ahead of an unsavory past and one piece of silver away from selling them out. In a land of savage outlaws and hostile Utes, with a rattlesnake named Hal Durham in their midst, Duval and his men are running out of time and out of luckâ?¦
