Outlaw
(Book - Mass Market Paperback)

"When war came to the Shenandoah Valley, Matt Slaughter and his older brother, Owen, joined the Confederate army. But three years defending his homeland as a sniper has weighed heavily on Matt's conscience. With the cause lost, the brothers desert - only to find upon their arrival home that Owen's farm has fallen into the hands of swindlers. When Owen accidentally kills a Union officer, Matt takes the blame. But now-facing a sham trial and a noose, he escapes to the west where he saves the life of another fugitive down-and-outer. Both men are a breed apart from other outlaws. Neither kills for pleasure or steals for profit. But that doesn't matter to the cold-blooded men who are going to give them hell to pay-and get the same in return..." --,Provided by publisher.
