In a land where justice is measured in bullets, one quest for vengeance forges a relentless avenger.
In 1875, sixteen-year-old Card Jordan returns from his first solo hunting trip to a scene of unimaginable horror-his family has been slaughtered by a gang of ruthless thieves. Scrawled in the dirt beside his mother's lifeless body are the chilling words: CARD, KILL THEM ALL.
Driven by vengeance, Card must shed his youthful innocence and step into a world of danger and retribution. Adorned with his father's old Cavalry hat, he sets out to track down the murderers and exact justice, determined to uphold the honor of his family. Along the way, he faces heartache, illness, and the harsh realities of frontier life, all while honing his skills as a gunfighter.
As Card's journey through North Texas and Indian Territory becomes a brutal quest for revenge while he pursues the gang's leader, Ned Black, each step brings him closer to his goal-and forces him to confront the deep pain of his loss and the uncertainty of his future. Will killing them all bring him peace?
