There are many reasons settlers came west after the Civil War. Jesse Jones came to escape his past but the haunting memory of revenge for a friend's murder stays with him. He now wields the murderer's LeMat pistol. Stationed with the army at Sidney Barracks, Jesse uses his skill with the unusual pistol to guard the railroad from attack by native Cheyenne. After a vicious attack by Union soldiers, Sarah Fitzpatrick plans to become a singer but ends up working as one of Madam Roger's girls. With each encounter, she despairs of ever being free of old memories. After a chance meeting with Jesse, her life takes a turn for the better. Custus Leverette controls Sidney, 'the wickedest town in the west' and no one dares cross him. When he decides he wants Sarah, he'll destroy anyone or anything standing in his way. Who will survive the battle between Custus' bowie knife, the Jesse Jones-The Man with the LeMat?

Autorenporträt
Zachary Lane is a native Nebraskan; a small-town kid who has a big imagination. A family vacation to a battlefield sparked his interest in the Civil War. The 'old shed ' in his backyard soon became an officer's quarters or a fort. Lane fueled his imagination by reading books about this epic war that pitted brother against brother. His library is filled with books. Lots and lots of books. So many books that an ultimatum has been issued in the Lane household--if a new book comes in, an older one must be boxed up and put on a shelf in the garage. Zachary began writing seriously after visiting a rest stop near Sidney, Nebraska. Observing and reading a historical marker overlooking the railroad and town in the valley below set his imagination free to tell the story of life there in the 1860's and 1870's. He still lives in Nebraska where he enjoys walks with his wife, playing with grandchildren, grilling on summer evenings, smoking ribs, and stretching his imagination by writing new stories about the old west.
