The earthquake lasts less than a minute. What it wakes up will not stop for anyone.
When the ground splits open south of Fort Carver, it doesn't just crack the earth. It breaks a seal nobody in the New Mexico Territory knew existed. What comes out of that canyon doesn't hunt like anything Caleb Holt has ever tracked, and he has spent three years tracking a man who murdered his family across two territories without stopping once.
Caleb rides into the wreckage of Fort Carver looking for one man. He finds a fort already dying: a frontier doctor carrying more guilt than medicine, a woman hunting the same man Caleb is for reasons of her own, a chained prisoner who turns out to be more decent than anyone expects, an Apache tracker who understands exactly what the canyon let loose, a preacher losing his certainties in real time, and a six-year-old girl nobody quite knows what to do with.
By dawn, the fort is a memory. By nightfall, so is any illusion that this ends quietly.
The first book in the Talon Country series.
