FROM BOOK 1:
Late 1800s, Texas. An epic search of the Waste Land for truth, redemption, revenge and justice has begun. Percy Murratt seeks Sheriff Ardiss Drake, the only man who knows the truth about his late father. But Ardiss has other concerns. His wife Guernica has run off with outlaw Lancaster O’Loch into the Waste Land. He sends his deputies Gary Wayne Orkney and Boris Bennick into the desolate landscape to search for them, but they face their own demons in the hunt. Reverend Merle Tallison battles with his faith as the voice that guided him through the Waste Land to Bretton deserts him. As the four men navigate the harsh terrain, each must decide if they can act with chivalry and honor as they pursue their own paths.
