The Brave Cowboy

Jack Burnes is a loner at odds with modern civilization.A man out of time, he rides a feisty chestnut mare across the New West — a once beautiful land smothered beneanth airstrips and superhighways.And he lives by a personal code of ethics that sets him on a collision course with the keepers of law and order.Now he has stepped over the line by breaking one too many of society's rulus.The hounds of justice are hot in his trail. But Burnes would rather die than spend even a single night behind bars.And they have to catch him first.
