La ballata di Smitty Wesson

by Baiardi, Laura
La ballata di Smitty Wesson

New Mexico, 1889. Smitty Wesson is a horse thief on the run, hunted by private vendettas and old grudges. Riding his horse, Quick Sands, he finds refuge in Silvertown, a town of ranchers and gambling, where he crosses paths with Mike Jacobs, a schoolteacher determined to hire a hitman to avenge a blood grievance.

Amid schemes, daring escapes, guns drawn, and dangerous alliances, the two men find themselves bound by a common fate. But in the Wild West, every choice has a price, and every friendship can turn into betrayal.

Shootouts, forbidden passions, and tangled vendettas drive a fast-paced western where the law is written at the barrel of a gun.
