Stryker's Judgement
(2026)(The second book in the Stryker Western Adventure series)
A novel by Clem Mariotte and Cherokee Parks
One road in. No law worth trusting. And a man scheduled to hang before the truth can reach daylight.
When bounty hunter Jack Stryker rides into Garnet Fork on a federal warrant, he expects a hard trail and a quick extraction. What he finds instead is a canyon town locked down tight—watched streets, silent locals, and a hanging already set in motion.
Ellis Cord is the man Stryker came for. A fraud charge out of Denver puts a price on his head—but the noose waiting for him in Garnet Fork has nothing to do with money. A murder charge with no victim. A trial no one can account for. And a judge who’s already ridden out of town, leaving others behind to make sure the sentence is carried out.
As Stryker pushes deeper, the shape of the problem comes clear. The road south is blocked. The law is compromised. And every man holding a gun in that canyon answers to someone with something to hide.
With time running out and the walls closing in, Stryker has one shot to take a man out of a town that doesn’t intend to let him leave—alive or otherwise.
If you like hard Western action, tight pacing, and a lone gunman who plays the long game when it matters, ride with Jack Stryker in this gripping next installment.
