There is always a price...and it's paid in blood.

Eli Gault was raised by a merciless, drunken fire-and-brimstone preacher - until he avenged himself upon his pious father. And that was only the beginning of his rage.

Because when Eli meets Cutter Sharpe - a legendary mankiller and expert gunhand - the pair starts shooting their way across Texas, leaving a trail of blood and bodies behind them. But Eli is about to learn that there's a line a man shouldn't cross, because there's no going back - there's only hell to pay.
