Description

He was a ghost on the frontier, a man named Rip Campbell, with a past as deadly as his Colt .45.

Fleeing a bloody shootout in Bend, Oregon, the notorious gunman known as "Rip" finds himself wounded, hunted, and at the end of his rope in the unforgiving badlands. Driven by desperation, he stumbles into the fertile, contested territory of Colfax County, a powder keg ready to explode.

In the wild Palouse hills, a brutal war is brewing. Ruthless cattle baron Bayer is hell-bent on driving homesteaders from the rich land he claims as his own. With a corrupt sheriff, Ted Dyke, in his pocket and a gang of hired guns at his command, Bayer's reign of terror seems unstoppable. The settlers, fighting for their dreams and their very survival, face impossible odds.

Forced into an unholy alliance, Rip Campbell dons a tin star, becoming "Deputy Jake Brown" – Bayer's unwilling enforcer. Haunted by his past and tormented by a festering wound, he's thrust into a deadly game of intimidation and violence. But when he witnesses the raw courage of ordinary folk standing against tyranny, a flicker of something long dead stirs within him.

Will Rip Campbell play the hand fate has dealt him, or will this jaded outlaw make one last, desperate stand for something more than survival?

Packed with gritty realism, classic Western gunfights, desperate chases across the rugged frontier, and the powerful story of a man confronting his own demons, this action-adventure saga brings the Old West vividly to life. If you love tales of lone gunmen, frontier justice, and the high-stakes struggle for land and redemption in the tradition of Zane Grey and Louis L'Amour, you won't want to miss Rip Campbell's fight for his soul in the heart of Colfax County.
