Summary:

"In his younger days, Taylor Callahan didn't know right from wrong - and didn't much care either. As a Confederate bushwhacker, renegade outlaw, and all-around hellraiser, he gave the devil himself a run for his money. Most folks figured Taylor would end up swinging from a noose or shot dead in a poker game. But somewhere along the road to perdition, he decided to change his wicked ways. To atone for his sins. And to fight the good fight - against the evil that men do . . . So he became a traveling preacher. Taylor Callahan is no ordinary preacher. He rides the western circuit looking to help lost souls. But his mission of peace takes a violent turn when he enters the godforsaken town of Falstaff, Texas. Better known to locals as "False Hope," this one-time paradise has become a purgatory for homesteaders - thanks to a greedy rancher, corrupt mayor, and notorious confidence man. Even so, Callahan vows to keep his Colt .45 in his saddlebag. But when these lowlife devils pull out sticks of dynamite, a man has to do what a man has to do - before the whole town is blown to kingdom come . . ."-- Provided by publisher.
