[McAllister 05] • McAllister · Quarry

McAllister—totally dedicated to the hunting of one man

The Quarry—a man with no name, only a reputation for violence and evil

Ana—young, beautiful, and tragically caught in the crossfire of the two antagonists

Week in and week out, McAllister remorselessly followed his quarry across the Wind River Country and down into the arid flats of the Humboldt Basin.

Their final duel would be a clash of giants, one master pitting his skill against another’s. For they were two men at the peak of their professions—one a lawman, the other a thief and killer.

Cunning against cunning...

Gun against gun ...

Totally without pity.
