THE GHOST OF THE MALPAIS Matt Sorghum was a man of the earth. He believed in the honesty of the plow and the quiet promise of a harvest. But when the Blackhand gang leaves his world in ashes and his family in the dirt, the farmer dies - and a ghost is born. Armed with a weathered Winchester and fueled by a grief that knows no borders, Matt embarks on a journey across the unforgiven reaches of the New Mexico territory. Alongside a cold-blooded bounty hunter and guided by the echoes of a lost life, he must navigate the "killing bottles' of the high desert to find the man who took everything. From the ghost towns of the silver-vein to the bottomless depths of the Old Spanish Mine, Matt Sorghum is no longer planting seeds. He is harvesting a debt.
