Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Some men chase silver. Silas Rook chases the road that touches everything.When a bloodied prospector dies in a Blackwater saloon with an oilskin packet hidden against his ribs, drifter Cole Mercer and former saloon singer Lena Vale are pushed onto a chase neither of them wanted. Cole rides because the dead man saved his life with one whispered phrase: \*wrong mouth\*. Lena rides because she knows what Silas Rook is - and what he does to women who refuse the bargains he offers in clean parlors.Across late-summer canyon country, Rook's men come in waves. Vance the patient hunter. Bledsoe the fire-setter who hums while he works. Orin who closes too fast. And Pike, who was Cole's kin before he was anyone's gun. The country itself becomes the larger antagonist: dry wash, burned refuge, hidden cairn route, smoke that bends the wrong way. The horses pay for every mile. The kin debt accrues by ridges and rawhide knots.What Rook actually wants is not the silver at the end of the trail. It is the hidden mouth of a road that would let a man control who can move through the country at all. Cole and Lena learn this on stone the same hour the climb-out turns to fire on the ledge - and the choice they make at the Last Ledge will close some doors, leave others open for the country to answer, and send them west on a horse Cole did not name and never will.The Blackwater Prize opens the Epic Western Novel Series - six books of classic American western in the prestige register. Real horses. Real country. Restrained romance. A moral spine. A frontier that never pretends to be anything but what it is.For readers of Charles Portis (\*True Grit\*), Paulette Jiles (\*News of the World\*), and the literary corner of the western shelf.…
