Long John O'Malley is only nineteen years old, but he's no greenhorn. The oldest and boldest of the O'Malley brothers, Long John cut his teeth tangling with Comanche at the tender age of sixteen.

It's a treacherous trail, and it's not long before the young Texan is earning his paycheck by fighting off a tribe of bloodthirsty Sioux. But the real test lies in the journey ahead-a genuine ride to hell and back, from the Rocky Mountains to Sante Fe and all the way home-that will either make Long John O'Malley a living legend... or a dead one.

It begins with a spectacular train robbery-a brilliantly planned, brutally executed heist masterminded by a shadowy gang of conspirators with far deadlier motives than money or gold. Their mission: to steal the train's shipment of powerful explosives. Their goal: to assassinate Mexico's legendary resistance leader Benito Juarez-at a small stagecoach station owned and operated by the O'Malley family...
