When federal troops ride into Dry Willow under the banner of "territorial authority," Deputy Marshal Jonah Creed finds himself sidelined by men who believe the frontier belongs to Washington-and to the railroad.
New laws are posted. Guns are registered. Authority shifts from the street to the ledger.

Dominion built on pressure must eventually break something.
And he refuses to let it break his town.
Iron Dominion is a hard-driving Western of power, patience, and a lawman who understands that sometimes the strongest stand isn't loud-it's unyielding.
