Subtraction

By Peter Gibson and Stephenson Crossley

SUBTRACTION: In the alkali flats of 1869 Colorado Territory, Clara Kane counts.Seventeen names. Seventeen men who burned her parents alive and left her and her brother for dead. Half-Chinese and orphaned at ten, Clara has spent twelve years turning grief into geometry: every bullet drop, every wind drift, every heartbeat between shots. The mathematics don't lie. They never do.Now the last ten targets are gathered in the desert city of New Rome. One final night. One perfect count.But when her brother reappears after twelve years-alive, disguised, and working for the man who destroyed them-Clara's precision begins to fracture. And at the moment she needs it most, the mathematics fail her.What remains is a woman who has counted everything except the cost of becoming the thing she hunts.A haunting literary Western about revenge, identity, and what we measure when the world refuses to measure us.
