A family destroyed by murderous border ruffians...
A tortured soul on a quest for atonement...
... and a battle that became a turning point in history
As Rusty Bluntstone’s body struggled to fight for survival—floating in and out of fevered dreams—he saw six men riding toward their farmhouse. He didn’t hear his father speak, but he knew the words anyway. ‘Get your sister to that old cave and hide until I come get you. Go!’ Rusty argued, but his father slapped him, hard.
The shock of remembering caused Rusty to black out again. Then, he saw his father galloping down the slope, trying to outrace the men headed for his home, his wife. His sister shrieked—she is only twelve, and himself just fifteen. His cheek still burns as he turns his horse, leading the way, to the cave. Behind them, he can hear shots firing…
Sheriff Micah Blackmore agrees to teach the boy to handle a gun because nothing else will soothe the horrors that plague Rusty’s mind. The sight of their farmhouse burned to the ground. The bullet-riddled body of his father. His mother’s body, naked, violated—murdered by the vicious Dobbs Gang who had come from up from Texas.
Micah had not expected to find the talent Rusty showed with a gun. Already, the kid could draw and fire nearly as quickly as Micah. And there were very few men who thought they were faster than Sheriff Blackmore. None, in fact, who were alive…
Rusty’s Redemption is the spellbinding first book from Travis McGraw. If you like fast-paced action, struggles between good and evil, and justice served, then you’ll love this gritty tale of loss, vengeance and redemption.
