1863, Louisiana. Jack may have left the battlefield behind, but his gun is never far from reach, especially on the long and lonely road to nowhere. Soon, his skill lands him a job, and a new purpose. Navy Colt in hand, Jack embarks on the dangerous task of escorting a valuable wagon train of cotton down through Texas to Mexico. Working for another man, let alone a man like the volatile Brannigan, isn't going to be easy. With the cargo under constant attack, and the Deep South's most infamous outlaws hot on their trail, Jack knows he is living on borrowed time.

Almost
Hard to find new adventures for a character who's already been everywhere and done everything. Maybe a prequel would have been better on that basis. Still ,the writer is a genius and so even an implausible plot was brilliantly done and quite compelling at times. The idea that a London criminal might have gone to Africa to pursue a vendetta in Victorian times is preposterous and the story suffers from that. Mr Fraser Collard is never going to write a bad book though so despite all this it's well worth reading
