Book excerpt: Slocum escorts a pint-sized package through pistol-packed peril… Caught in a hellish Arizona sandstorm, John Slocum comes across a broken down wagon with only one living occupant—a newborn baby boy. The tiny bundle of joy has a pack of very dangerous men hunting for him. The same cutthroats who killed his father—and now want to cash in on the gold mine the kid just inherited. Teamed up with a less-than-motherly spitfire, Slocum fights a running battle across the wastelands. But he’s made a promise to get the baby to safety at all costs—and along the way, he’s going to sing the desperadoes a little hot lead lullaby….
