Nash and Doc Holliday are weeks out from Tombstone, but trouble rides faster than the dust can settle. After a healing stay in Apache country, Doc is sharper than he's been in years - and twice as reckless. When a detour leads them to a mining town with a crooked sheriff and outlaw glamour, Doc can't resist the call of a high-stakes Faro table.
The cards are marked. The town is bait. And someone wants Doc dead or broken.It should've been a quick game and a quicker getaway. But when masked gunmen hit the saloon mid-hand, Doc is taken hostage by a gang that doesn't care about the rules - only what he knows and what he's hiding. Nash rides into the desert after them, one man against many, guided only by his grit and a trail gone cold.
