ONE STOLEN FORTUNE. TWO RUTHLESS KILLERS. ONE DESPERATE FIGHT TO SURVIVE.
After eight grueling months working a lonely claim at Arizona’s Desperation Peak, young prospector Tim Beckdolt finally strikes a rich seam of gold. His dreams of owning a ranch and building a new life are within reach—until two cold-blooded outlaws seize his claim and force him to keep mining at gunpoint.
When Tim escapes into the unforgiving wilderness, he finds himself hunted for sport across miles of scorching desert. Unarmed, alone and pursued by the sadistic Bonnet and his giant accomplice Sven, Tim must rely on courage, resourcefulness and sheer determination if he hopes to survive long enough to outwit his pursuers and reclaim what he has earned.
