Slocum is on the hunt for revenge—and he's not the kind of man to stop until he gets exactly what he wants. Slocum’s just ridden into town with a pack of mules, a greenhorn named Tad, and hopes for some healthy compensation. And, he reckons, a soft bed with a lusty gal would suit him just fine. But instead of fillin’ up Slocum’s coffers with gold, the mules’ yella-bellied owner fills Slocum and Tad up with lead—killing the kid. Forgiveness has never been Slocum’s strong suit—and he declares vengeance on his young friend’s killer. What he doesn’t realize, however, is that this murder involves gold, local politics—and low-down politicians. And a certain lusty young lady with a mind to avenge her father’s murder is only too happy to learn Slocum the way to the killers’ lair, a place they call Whiskey Springs—in exchange for some French lessons from him…

Any man would fear her—but Longarm isn’t just any man. She stands six-foot-six, and usually over the body of someone who got in her way. She goes by the name Increase Younger, and she’s willing to do anything to see that Deputy Marshal Custis Long meets his maker. Anything. But Longarm’s gotten death threats from more outlaws than anyone cares to remember, and not a single one was meaner, smarter, or faster than the law man himself. Then again, it only takes one.

After six weeks on the trail, both men are itchin’ for some company of the female kind. Abigail Stanley fits the bill any which way you look at her—and, in addition to her comely figure and come-hither glances, she has a head for business.

She has it in her noggin that a big-time railway to her hometown of No Consequence, Nebraska, would translate into untold fortune for the so far unfortunate village. So, anxious to set things a-rolling, the townspeople willingly dish out their money for this joint venture with a Mr. Rafe Ferguson. Everything seems right as rain—until Slocum learns more than he should about the supposed benefactor of what is merely an imaginary Platte & Central Plains Railroad…

And it’s Bob’s job to make sure Persephone doesn’t cause an international incident. But it’s a supernatural incident that Bob needs to worry about—a global threat even the Laundry may be unable to clean up…
