Balance Of Blood
(2026)(The first book in the Wilde: United States Bounty Hunter series)
A novel by Robert Hanlon
In the West, blood is currency—and every debt must be balanced.
Wilde hunts men for a living, but she does not hunt blindly. Every bounty she takes is measured against a personal code forged in loss, survival, and hard-earned restraint. When a routine capture exposes a far-reaching criminal network led by the calculating Luther Driscol, Wilde finds herself drawn into a dangerous game where violence is organized, fear is enforced, and silence is bought with blood.
As Wilde follows the trail through frightened towns and hostile country, she discovers that Driscol’s operation thrives not on chaos, but on structure—ledgers, payments, and men who believe they are untouchable. Each step closer tightens the vise, turning her from hunter into target. Allies become liabilities, hesitation proves fatal, and every decision carries a human cost that cannot be undone.
Driven, relentless, and morally unflinching, Balance of Blood introduces a formidable new bounty hunter whose strength lies not only in her skill with a gun, but in her refusal to look away from the consequences of her work. This is a classic Western sharpened by tension, character, and hard truths about justice in a land where survival often comes at someone else’s expense.
Ride with Wilde today and discover what happens when a woman who understands the price of blood decides it’s time to collect in full.
