Spur Award-winning author Loren D. Estleman crafts a gripping tale of redemption and revenge in Mister St. John.
Irons St. John was once a feared lawman and outlaw hunter, a man whose reputation could quell the wildest frontier. But now, in the twilight of his career, he's a defeated politician, lost in drink and debt-until his past calls him to the hunt once more.
A notorious gang is tearing through the West, and St. John must assemble a posse of misfits-a weathered tracker, a sharpshooter with failing eyes, two outlaws on borrowed time, and a deadly preacher with a dark past-to bring them to justice.
In this high-stakes chase, old grudges resurface, alliances fracture, and the line between hero and villain blurs.
"Estleman rivals the finest American novelists with his gritty vision and keen ear." -The Washington Post Book World
