Bushwhacked! Hawthorn awakes upon the burning sands, his side shot open and bleeding and his horse dead beside him. He still has his guns and knife, but Dance is missing and so is the object, along with his cigarettes. Who could've ambushed him and taken the thief? As images flash across his mind, Hawthorn remembers. It was Revik the Mauler, another bounty hunter, whose efficiency is equaled only by his brutality. Now, Hawthorn must track down this rival hunter if he is to get Dance back and the object and receive the reward that awaits him in Redemption, and his cigarettes.
