Publisher's Synopsis
Cotton Harding, former Civil War soldier and current gunslinger, has come to Mexico to earn money doing what the war had made him good at-killing. He wants no part in the war that is taking place between a brutal Mexican bandit king and the towns he is terrorizing. But Harding has found love back in New Mexico, and that love has made him a man who would stand against a bandit army. He aims to recruit more men like him-good men; at least, good at one thing-killing. Yet in some ways these men are as bad as Benitez. These men, and Harding himself, are all either dead, dying, or damned.
