Sheriff Buck Rawlins was a hero … years ago. The next-to-last-thing he needed was a man like John Stone stopping a bank robbery single-handed, reminding folks what a real hero looked like. The last thing Rawlins needed was John Stone as his deputy.

Once, John Stone had everything a man could ever want: wealth, position, and a woman who loved him. But that was before the Civil War. Now, he’s lost his fortune, and his fiancée has disappeared. All he has left is his Colt, a picture of Marie, and a mission—to roam the West until he finds the woman he loves!
