Once a lawman, always a lawman. The only variation is whose laws you follow.
U.S. Marshal Flagg is not going to let Gideon Hawk, once deputy marshal, now Rogue Lawman, slip through his fingers. He follows Hawk to his hideout in Bedlam, determined to catch him. But he doesn't know that Hawk has the help of an old nemesis on his side, a woman who knows the feel of his touch-and the feel of a gun. And what he doesn't know could hurt him.
