The storm had been building, and now, the reckoning had come. Joe Galloway had fought to hold onto his business, his family, and his life in Bellevue. But the battle isn’t just about land or money anymore—it was about power, blood, and who was left standing when the dust settles. The Consecki family ruled the coal industry with an iron fist, and Pete Consecki would do whatever it took to keep it that way. Rules don’t matter. Neither does the law. Winning was the only thing that counts. Sheriff Smith had seen enough blood spilled in Bellevue, and he was desperate to stop the war before it consumed the town. He warned Joe to stand down, to let justice take its course. But Joe knew better. Justice was a luxury for men who still believed in it. Violence was the only language his enemies understood—and it was the only thing he had left. When two more bodies hit the ground, the choice was made for him. The final showdown was coming, and the cost of survival may be more than anyone was willing to pay. In Bellevue, there were no second chances. No redemption. No mercy. This time, only one man would walk away.Voir livre
