A village is destroyed. A vengeance is born. And one man blazes a trail to hell and back to pay the devils their due--in bullets and blood. They call him Preacher...

JOHNSTONE COUNTRY. FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE.

It starts as a happy reunion between Preacher and his fellow trappers in a peaceful Indian village. But it ends swiftly in death and destruction when a rival tribe attacks the village, slaughters some of Preacher's Crow and mountain man friends, and carries off the women and children as prisoners. Preacher was off hunting when it happened. Now he's teaming up with old friend Lorenzo and half-breed Tall Dog, to get the prisoners back--and get revenge. But the road to justice is paved with some very dark omens. And the trail leads to the baddest place on God's good earth: the bubbling quicksand pits, hot springs, and geysers of the Wyoming wild country known as Colter's Hell . . .

Here--where earthquakes shake the land and no man is safe--Preacher and his friends must wage a three-man war against one of the fiercest tribes this side of the devil's inferno. And once the shooting starts, it's going to get a hell of a lot hotter...

Oh, and there's also a question of 100 missing rifles . . .
