The new action-packed historical Western in the popular Nathan Stark series by the bestselling legends William W. and J.A. Johnstone...

JOHNSTONE COUNTRY. NEVER RUN A BLUFF WITH A SIX-GUN.

A legend, his name is mentioned alongside Buffalo Bill Cody and Wild Bill Hickok. He casts a stormcloud-sized shadow across the untamed Western frontier. Men on both sides of the law fear his wrath. For Nathan Stark is the army’s avenging angel, waging war against the hostile  Indian tribes that threaten the nation—and murdered his family in cold blood.

In Arizona Territory, the Apache have been raiding both sides of the border, slaughtering anyone who gets in their way. This is the same Indian band that kidnapped the children of the Navajo chief whose scouts serve the U.S. Army—and the Navajo will not engage the Apache as long as the chief’s children are in harm’s way.

Now, Stark and Crow scout Moses Red Buffalo have been tasked with rescuing the Navajo. But they aren’t the only ones on the trail of the kill-crazy Apache. A group of unhinged scalphunters are looking to collect the Mexican government’s bounty on the Apache. Now the territory is about to explode in an avalanche of violence and death . . .
William W. Johnstone is the USA Today and New York Times bestselling author of over 300 books, including Preacher, The Last Mountain Man, Luke Jensen Bounty Hunter, Flintlock, Savage Texas, Matt Jensen, The Last Mountain Man; The Family Jensen, Sidewinders, and Shawn O'Brien Town Tamer . His thrillers include Phoenix Rising, Home Invasion, The Blood of Patriots, The Bleeding Edge, and Suicide Mission. Visit his website at www.williamjohnstone.net or by email at dogcia2006@aol.com.

Being the all-around assistant, typist, researcher, and fact checker to one of the most popular western authors of all time, J.A. Johnstone learned from the master, Uncle William W. Johnstone.  

He began tutoring J.A. at an early age. After-school hours were often spent retyping manuscripts or researching his massive American Western history library as well as the more modern wars and conflicts. J.A. worked hard—and learned.

"Every day with Bill was an adventure story in itself. Bill taught me all he could about the art of storytelling. ‘Keep the historical facts accurate,' he would say. ‘Remember the readers, and as your grandfather once told me, I am telling you now: be the best J.A. Johnstone you can be.'" View titles by J.A. Johnstone
