Redemption Song — John G. Hartness

This weird western tale is set in the Quincy Harker, Demon Hunter universe, and is a standalone short story.

A man steps into a bar. Cards stop flying across the felt. Drinks stop sliding down the bar. The piano player freezes mid-note. Trouble has arrived, and it wears its gun for all the world to see.

This atmospheric tale of love and justice has more in common with High Plains Drifter than with most Quincy Harker stories, but lives in the same world. Magic, whiskey, cards, cash, and bullets blend together in a creepy tale of revenge and redemption.

Redemption Song was originally published in Tales of the Weird Wild West anthology.
