The Sharpshooter (Book 2)Union Army sharpshooter Jed Wells met the possibly mad artist Josephus McCade when they were prisoners in Andersonville, and he remembers the strange man's rants about a "key" to unimaginable wealth. Now that the guns of the war between North and South have fallen silent, curiosity is drawing Jed back onto the trail of the eccentric McCade. But the artist's life may soon be coming to a brutal end, thanks to a secret he will tell no one -- a mystery that's pulling Jed Wells himself into the gunsight of a killer . . . and into a quagmire of lies, greed, and vengeance that threatens to drag both him and McCade to their deaths.

Union Army sharpshooter Jed Wells was one of them, a man of conscience sworn to share the tales of those who suffered and died beside him.

And his dangerous obsession threatens to explode in a vengeful rain of bullets and death -- forcing Jed to take up his rifle once again to save a soul damned by terrible secrets buried with the bones of captured soldiers.

But the trail is leading them into the strange and troubled lives of a wealthy and powerful family, and toward an unexpected confrontation in the small Texas town of Repentance Creek, where it seems everyone -- including a beautiful and mystifying young woman -- guards a deadly secret"--
