They burned her home They stole her brother & sister But vengeance is following Shy South hoped to bury her bloody past & ride away smiling but she'll have to sharpen up some bad old ways to get her family back & she's not a woman to flinch from what needs doing She sets off in pursuit with only a pair of oxen & her cowardly old stepfather Lamb for company But it turns out Lamb's buried a bloody past of his own & out in the lawless Far Country the past never stays buried Their journey will take them across the barren plains to a frontier town gripped by gold fever through feud duel & massacre high into the unmapped mountains to a reckoning with the Ghosts Even worse it will force them into alliance with Nicomo Cosca infamous soldier of fortune & his feckless lawyer Temple two men no one should ever have to trust The past never stays buried
