Justice rides a bullet in the shadow of betrayal. The year is 1878, and the fight for Colorado's Royal Gorge has ignited a war beyond the courts-a war fueled by greed, sabotage, and blood. Railroad tycoon Steven Atkins will stop at nothing to control the silver-rich passage through the mountains. When lawsuits stall on paper, Atkins hires Pinkerton to secure his right of way against a rival's claim. Behind the scenes Atkins engages El Anillo assassins for hire to eliminate rival investor Eli Chorus. Bullets fly when Great Western Detective League operative Beau Longstreet thwarts one of El Anillo's killers and becomes the only witness to a conspiracy with lethal reach. Hunted by professional assassins and haunted by the weight of what he knows, Longstreet must race against time to expose the truth and protect the woman he loves. In a land where betrayal is currency and survival demands nerve and steel, The Great Western Detective League rides again. But this time, it's not just justice on the line-it's Longstreet's life, and the soul of the West itself. Assassin's Witness is a bullet-fast tale of loyalty and vengeance, where every clue comes at a cost and the final verdict is delivered at the barrel of a gun.
