"MATT BRAUN IS A MASTER STORYTELLER OF FRONTIER HISTORY."
—Elmer Kelton
On a fierce frontier
In 1878, a struggling prospector found silver in the jagged mountains of Arizona. Within a year the town of Tombstone was filling up with merchants, tradesmen, gamblers, whores, gunslingers...and, eventually, Wyatt Earp.
One town earned a legend of its own...
When Earp arrives in Tombstone, nothing is ever the same. Along with Doc Holliday and a band of thieves, he turns the Arizona territory into his personal stomping grounds—until Wells Fargo puts an end to a string of savage stage robberies. With the legend of the OK Corral shoot-out fanning out across the frontier, private detective Luke Starbuck is sent to Tombstone on a mission: To learn the truth about Wyatt Earp. And to lay his legend to rest...
"BRAUN IS ONE OF THE BEST!"
