Synopsis: Gunfighting legend Sam Pritchard tracks down a notorious train saboteur—and nearly goes off the rails—in this fast-paced Western adventure from acclaimed author Sean Lynch. . . . DEMENTED. DERANGED. DERAILED. 1875. The escalating rivalry between the two major railroad companies takes a dangerous—and deadly—turn when a train is deliberately derailed. Many are killed. More are injured. And Marshal Samuel Pritchard&’s longtime friend is crippled for life. The mastermind behind the train wreck claims to be the infamous Civil War criminal Jem Rupe, aka &“The Trainwrecker of Platte Bridge.&” There&’s just one problem: Rupe has been dead for ten years. . . . With an oath of vengeance on his lips—and a pair of Colt .45s on his hips—Pritchard sets off to find the trainwrecking fiend, whether it&’s really Jem Rupe or some copy-cat maniac. Either way, he&’ll have to ride the rails with some pretty deranged characters—crooked railroad tycoons, ruthless bounty hunters, trigger-happy gunfighters—before he reaches the end of the line. There&’s just one way to stop a mass transit murderer . . . and that&’s dead in his tracks. &“A riveting thriller that bristles with hard-boiled authenticity.&” —bestselling author Mark Greaney on Thy Partner&’s Wife &“Sean Lynch spins a tale that is fast, fun and realistic.&” —bestselling author James O&’Born on Like Hell
