Description

The Dark Ranger stalks the blood-soaked sands of the Old West in this supernatural thriller from the Bram Stoker Awardwinning author of Sunglasses After Dark.

His ghost-breaking skills are advertised on the back of penny dreadfuls, but Sam Hells real mission is personal. The former Texas Rangers life was changed when he came upon the town of Golgotha, where an inhuman evil had been unleashed in the form of a long-dead conquistador. Released from his grave, the Spaniard called Sangre massacred the locals and amassed a small army of the undead. Only Hell was able to escape, thanks to a containment charm buried with Sangre. But not before he was bitten by the vampireand left for dead...

He may have died as a man, but the Hell that awoke was now a creature of the night, saved by the magic of the Comanche shamaness, Pretty Woman. With their destinies entwined, the pair travel the West, tracking down those birthed at Golgotha and their unholy spawn. Until the carnage at a trading post leads them to a showdown with Sangre that will tip the fate of the world...
