On Saturday, the fun-loving citizens of Prospect, Texas, slaughtered a band of drifters – Indians – who were just passing through their quiet little whistle-stop. On Sunday, the god-fearing citizens of Prospect, Texas, received the blessing of Austin Henry Loring – Reverend – who preached hellfire and damnation to this town without pity. On Monday, the man called Edge rode into Prospect. Before he could wash the acrid trail dust from his throat, the trigger-happy town was on his back.
In this rough-riding story, Edge, the most brutal hero in the West, discovers a brothel in the middle of the Arizona desert. As Edge soon learns, The Come and Go is no ordinary cathouse. In fact, the patrons are lucky to get out alive. But Edge confronts the dangers lurking inside with blazing guns in hand.
Edge rides into a campsite to discover that scores of women and children have been slaughtered while the warriors of the tribe were away hunting. Only one wounded young Arapaho survived the attack--a proud, beautiful young Indian maiden who is now consumed with hatred for the white men who killed her people.
Gilman's rough and raw hero rides high once again in his 44th action-packed outing. Edge is forced to take sides when he learns the true colors of the fashionably dressed couple he saw driving through the desert. It seems the pair is in deep with some local rustlers--who don't take well to being cheated.
Edge gets caught in a crossfire when he arrives in Elgin City, Wyoming. Mayor Earl Gray rules the town with an iron fist, and his law is enforced by hired gunslingers, the fastest draws money can buy. Gray wants Edge to be his num¬ber one henchman—and he won't take no for an answer. The rebellious townspeople want the dic¬tator, Gray, out of the county, and they try to enlist Edge to their cause. Both sides push Edge a little too far, and when the bloodshed finally comes, Edge stands alone—the deadliest enemy that either side faces.
