Publisher's Synopsis
Longarm's got a target painted on his back.
The powerful Ramsey family is seeing red after favorite son Horace Ramsey is gunned down by none other than Deputy U.S. Marshal Custis Long. Never mind that Longarm killed him in the line of duty to stop him from assaulting Mrs. Rose Delamonte. Ramsey blood has been spilled-and both Longarm and Mrs. Delamonte must atone.
The beautiful, redheaded Rose Delamonte is a widow, her husband and in-laws murdered by the Ramseys back in Santa Fe for their ranch. And now that Longarm has raised the ire of the family, she assures him Horace's kinfolk won't rest until the two of them are pushing up daisies.
When a tree's gone rotten, it needs to be chopped down. This is one family tree Longarm aims to take down-no matter how many blows he needs to strike…
