Where the Dust Won't Settle

Some things stay buried forever. The truth isn't one of them. In the sweltering Texas town of Sundown, Sheriff Hank Callahan lives with the weight of a past he can't outrun. Years ago, a mission gone wrong left innocent lives in ashes-and the truth buried under layers of loyalty, silence, and guilt. Since then, Hank has traded his rifle for a badge, trying to keep his county clean, even as the stain on his conscience deepens.
When Clay "Rattlesnake" Rutherford walks into the Sundown Saloon carrying threats from a powerful military figure, the fragile balance Hank has built starts to crack. Clay might have once been a friend, but he's not here to reminisce. He came to pull Hank back into a world of cover-ups, favors, and the kind of justice that leaves blood behind. Now, Hank must decide what kind of man he's willing to be...
and what price he's willing to pay to break free of the past.
