The Kindness of Strangers

~ A Western short story with a paranormal twist ~

Jericho Dean wants revenge and is willing to do anything – even die – to get it. He's trailing a band of Comancheros who massacre and pillage without conscience or hesitation. Outnumbered, but determined, Jericho makes camp for what may be the last time as he nears his quarry.



An unusual old cowboy who gives his name as Freeman Hart comes out of nowhere to join Dean. He's searching for Tidwell's Comancheros too. But Jericho knows there's something not quite right about the situation. Will Hart help or hinder his quest for vengeance?
