Branded — Eric Red

Joe Noose hunts down the first known serial killer on the American frontier -- in this trailblazing thriller from acclaimed author Eric Red . . .
 
SCARRED FOR LIFE
 
A new kind of evil has come to the Old West. A killer as cold and hard as the Wyoming winter. He wanders from town to town. Slaughters entire families along the way. With grotesque glee, he brands the letter Q in his victims' flesh. Joe Noose knows the killer's identity. He recognizes the killer's brand. He bears the same scar from his childhood -- and he's determined to stop this madman once and for all. Two U.S. marshals have agreed to help Joe. But they've never hunted a killer like this before. A sadist who kills for pleasure -- and scars you for life . . .
