Publisher Description
In "The Ebony Badges," U.S. Marshals Isaac Jackson and Sarah Freeman take up the mantle of frontier justice, stepping into the legendary boots of Steven and Kedrin, the famed "White Warriors." As the first Black marshals in the territory, Isaac and Sarah must contend not only with the lawlessness of the Wild West but also with the prejudices and distrust of those they have sworn to protect.
When a shadowy criminal syndicate known as the Obsidian League begins to spread its tentacles across the frontier, Isaac and Sarah find themselves embroiled in a mystery that threatens to unravel the very fabric of Western society. Led by the enigmatic and ruthless mastermind known as the Raven, the League engages in a campaign of counterfeit currency, stagecoach robberies, and cold-blooded murder, always staying one step ahead of the law.
As they delve deeper into the Obsidian League's web of corruption, Isaac and Sarah must navigate a treacherous landscape of saloon brawls, gunfights, and double-crosses, forging uneasy alliances with both lawmen and outlaws alike. From the seedy backrooms of The Whispering Saloon to the haunted canyons of Serpent's Gulch, they follow a trail of clues and corpses, uncovering a conspiracy that reaches to the highest echelons of power.
With the help of a colorful cast of characters, including a smooth-talking gambler, a fiery saloon singer, and a mysterious Apache scout, Isaac and Sarah must use all of their wits, skills, and courage to bring the Raven to justice and shatter the Obsidian League once and for all. But as they close in on their quarry, they discover that the true mastermind behind the League may be someone far closer to home than they ever imagined.
Filled with action, adventure, humor, and heart, "The Ebony Badges" is a rollicking tale of frontier justice and the unbreakable bonds of friendship and duty. As Isaac and Sarah confront their own doubts and fears, they must also grapple with the larger questions of race, identity, and what it truly means to wear the badge in a land where the line between right and wrong is often blurred by the heat of the desert sun.
In the end, Isaac and Sarah's journey will test their mettle as lawmen and as human beings, forcing them to confront the darkness that lurks not only in the hearts of men but also within themselves. And as they emerge victorious, they will take their place among the legendary heroes of the Old West, proving that justice knows no color, only the content of one's character and the strength of one's convictions.
