By Ralph Cotton

Subjects: Fiction, general

Description: Sam Burrack, the Arizona lawman known simply as The Ranger, makes his living tracking down dangerous criminals. His goal is swift justice, his aim is as sure as death. But a midnight jailbreak that sets loose a cadre of killers and trigger-happy outlaws is about to put The Ranger skills and sense of justice to the test. Ernesto Caslado, the Mexican-born desperado who is behind the jailbreak, leads the band of convicts deep into the harsh frontier of the Bandlands. He, too, is searching for justice, seeking out the true killer guilty of the murder that almost sent him to the gallows. Both men are driven, and both are about to face the hardest journey of their lives. Before, the sun goes down, the Badlands will defy everything they know about honor, courage, and loyalty.
