The Last Letter From Perdition (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798231879793)

THE LAST LETTER FROM PERDITION
By Kenneth Thomas

Seven years ago, seventeen people died at Red Hollow.

The official record called them rustlers.

Harlan Creed knows better.

When a dying clerk leaves him nine sealed letters, Creed is forced back onto the roads of New Mexico Territory carrying evidence that could destroy a sheriff, a judge, and the most powerful landholder in Perdition.

Each letter leads to another witness.

A widow with the wrong grief. A preacher who buried the names. A woman who kept a dead boy's marker hidden. A survivor living under another name.

And behind every mile waits the truth Creed has spent seven years outrunning.

He did not cause the massacre.

He did not stop it.

But one choice he made in the smoke may have saved a child, and seven years of silence helped the guilty keep the land.

Now the men who built their power on forged warrants, stolen water, and buried names are closing the road behind him.

To finish the route, Creed must do more than expose them.

He must return to Perdition, speak his own part aloud, and remain long enough to face what the living decide.

A literary Western about guilt, survival, stolen land, and the hard work of staying.
