A boy. A smoking twelve-gauge. A ranch worth dying for.
Fourteen-year-old Trey Owens is thrust into manhood the day a dying Texas gunman collapses behind his family’s barn in the high desert of northern New Mexico. The stranger is Clint Fuller — a notorious fast gun with saddlebags full of blood money… and secrets that will change Trey’s life forever.
When powerful rancher Rance Edwards and a crooked lawyer set their sights on the Owens’ water-rich land, they unleash hired killers, wolves, and outright terror to drive the family off. But Trey refuses to run. Armed with his father’s iron will and a thunderous .12 bore shotgun, the boy becomes the man of the house — protecting his ma, his injured brother, and a battered little girl they took in — one blast at a time.
From wolf-haunted nights to blazing gunfights on the doorstep, Trey learns the hard truth of the frontier: some men take what they want… and some boys become legends defending what’s theirs.
A raw, coming-of-age Western packed with action, family grit, and the howl of hot lead.
Genre: Western
