Ryder: The Beginning

A Gritty Western Series Box Set

Justice in the West is rarely clean.
And it’s never simple.


Ryder is a drifter with a past he doesn’t talk about and a code that won’t let him walk away when the law fails. In a land where justice moves slow and mercy is scarce, Ryder settles things the old-fashioned way—at gunpoint.

This box set collects the first three novels in the gritty Ryder Western series, following a relentless gunfighter as he’s pulled from one deadly conflict into another, where loyalty is tested, blood is spilled, and every choice carries a price.


A man cheated the noose. A town demands vengeance.When notorious outlaw Dale Madsen escapes the hangman’s rope, Ryder is drawn into a brutal manhunt across hostile country. With a posse riding blind and betrayal lurking at every turn, Ryder learns that justice in the frontier West is rarely about right or wrong—it’s about who’s left standing.


A wagon train full of secrets. A trail worth killing for.Hired as a scout on a routine run to Abilene, Ryder soon discovers the people he’s riding with are hiding more than supplies. Greed, fear, and buried Confederate gold turn allies into enemies, and as rifles appear on the ridgelines, Ryder finds himself standing between survival and slaughter.


A counterfeit empire. A woman taken. And a reckoning long overdue.In Dry Creek, Ryder uncovers a counterfeiting operation powerful enough to shake the country—and ruthless enough to silence anyone who gets close. Framed for murder and hunted from all sides, Ryder rides straight into the heart of a lawless town to settle the score once and for all.


This box set includes:Gone to Hell
Hell for Hire
Hell to Pay
