About this ebook
A U.S. Civil War veteran hoping to forget his dark past must choose between wealth & power or saving a town from a corrupt lawman in this western.
Mason Hawke emerged from war a scarred man, a man unable to return to a life of power and privilege. His only way out is to start his life anew, concealing his past from those he encounters. But things don't always go according to plan, which Mason finds out when he stops in a town where he knows the local sheriff, a man who has the town under his thumb. All Mason wants to do is settle down and pretend the past never happened. But now he must decide whether to live the easy life, forgetting his past, or to risk sacrificing himself, and help the town break free of the tyrannical lawman, at the risk of exposing something he’d wanted to keep buried.
