They Came For Blood - Hardcover

When the past comes for blood, you either draw first or die trying.

Tom Callahan was once the government's deadliest secret-a lethal gun-for-hire leading a team of assassins no one knew existed. Now those days are long gone. Or so he thought.

Now an aging cowboy trying to keep his ranch alive, Callahan wants nothing more than peace... and a sliver of forgiveness. But when word reaches him that his wife and son-long believed dead-may still be alive, that peace turns to dust.

From railroad corruption to a secret slave trade, outlaw towns to Washington's back rooms, every mile drags Callahan deeper into the rot of the nation he once served. Hunted, framed, and haunted by the men he used to ride with, he's forced to become the one thing he swore he'd never be again-a killer.

In a world built on blood, there's no clean way out. To save his family, Callahan will have to face the ghosts of his past-and decide if redemption is worth the price in bodies.

New York Times bestselling author M. William Phelps delivers a brutal, timely, and cinematic Western thriller where the trail to the truth runs red and redemption rides a pale horse.
