It may be that I’m sending you to your death.”

The third book in the Sudden Series chronology, has some ominous words, delivered in a quiet, even tone by one to whom the masking of emotion had become a habit.  Short, stockily built, of middle age, attired in a suit of sober black, with a boiled shirt and neat cravat, there was little to distinguish him from the common herd.  But this was Governor Bleke of Arizona, a name respected, feared, or hated throughout that lawless land.
