First if the Weird West Books
1879. Bounty hunter Jacob Hatcher pursues the outlaw Jedediah Sykes to the edge of a valley that his Apache guides refuse to enter, warning that the lands are cursed by an ancient, nameless evil. The trail leads him to a town, a dark paradise of sin and vice called Gehenna.
Hatcher and Sykes quickly become entangled in the mysteries of Gehenna’s peculiar denizens – a fire & brimstone Jesuit preaching to a city of lost souls, and a shadowy figure who rules over the town like a living god. When one of them makes a choice that threatens to damn them all, the rest must work together, confronting not only their own demons, but the hidden horrors of Gehenna itself, to find a stolen key that can unlock the domain of the dead.
A novel of bloody violence, damnation and redemption in the tradition of Joe R. Lansdale.
