And sometimes that price comes high -- with death. Alone. Desperate. Hunted like an animal. Deputy U.S. Marshal Jeremiah Halstead is about to face his day of judgment. But he won't do it alone. He will reach out to the last person he can trust -- his former partner -- and greet that fateful day with blood and agony."--
