Description
Missouri, 1862. Rob "Longshot" Finn knows his grief won't bring his wife back from the grave. Determined to put the tragedy behind him, he heads to St. Louis to set up a new Pinkerton operation. Under pressure to secure the Union's vital war funding, Longshot travels the trail West with none other than a young Buffalo Bill.
Battling unfamiliar terrain and savage predators, Longshot and his band discover the wild frontier doesn't play by the rules. And with liars and spies working for both sides of the war, even Longshot's unwavering belief in his government begins to falter...
Can he protect his principles, safeguard the gold, and keep his name off a fresh tombstone?
