Book excerpt: Longarm faces a family that slays together… The town of Devils River doesn’t have much to offer beyond ice-cold beer and a bodacious blacksmith who looks to Longarm like she can bang more than an anvil. But that’s where cold-blooded killer and wanted man Dolphus Lasher has chosen to hole up. Tossing Lasher into the local jail proves to be easier than Longarm figured. Problem is, the Lashers are planning a little family reunion in Devils River—the entire murderous clan is about to descend on the town. Blood may be thicker than water, but when it comes to a showdown between lawman and Lashers, Devils River is about to run red.
