Boot Hill

He rode into Hachita Valley seeking peace, but his past galloped in right behind him.



Rip Campbell poured his blood, sweat, and last dollar into his Bar P spread, dreaming of a quiet life under the vast New Mexico sky. But the brutal foreman of the Big M ranch, Burke Kildea, and the scorching heat of the Devil's Dustbowl aren't the only threats. When Kildea's men destroy his fledgling homestead, slaughtering his precious cattle and burning his winter feed, Steve's carefully buried past is dragged into the unforgiving light.

Accused of being Clay Lucas, the renegade brother of the infamous outlaw Butch Lucas, Rip finds his fight for survival is only just beginning. Every hand in the valley seems turned against him, and the woman whose respect he secretly craves, the spirited Ellie Mallory, owner of the Big M, now sees him as nothing but a common desperado.
