Rising Red — Caleb Rand

US Marshal Will Ritter is used to hauling outlaws in front of a judge but this is different: Theodore Pond was once a friend. Ritter is to transport him across miles of wild territory to stand trial for murder. When the prisoner and his cohorts try to break free, Will's problems really begin. Finding himself both at the mercy of his prisoners, and the moving target of a ruthless posse, this is one journey he will be lucky to finish alive.
