America, 1883. Gunslinger Benjamin Dance wanders the relentless wastelands of the Mojave Desert, lost and near death, his wounded body clinging to the back of a bloodstained horse. As night falls, an unexpected encounter with the mysterious and secretive stranger Jasper Bennett gives Benjamin an opportunity for survival.
With darkness surrounding them, Benjamin and Jasper seek solace in the light of a campfire. It is here that Benjamin recalls his remarkable history with the Two-Faced Reaper himself, Howling Jack Holloway.
Jasper is alarmed. He has heard savage tales about Howling Jack and the Devilfall Bastard Six before, and he cannot believe that Benjamin is after the bounty on the heads of the most dangerous outlaws in Nevada.
But Benjamin is not after the bounty. His pursuit of Howling Jack is entirely personal. This gunslinger is focused on nothing else but getting revenge on the man who ruined his life.
Inspired by the tropes and themes of 1800s dime novels, The Dust and the Dark Places perfectly captures the madness, debauchery and beauty of the American frontier. With epic themes of love, loss and redemption, this novel is both a reimagining and a homage to the traditional Western.”
