Once, he wore the badge.
Once, his name carried weight.
Now the town barely remembers him.
When a wave of violence sweeps across the desert settlement of Dry Wash, the men running the place decide they don't need law?only fear. The former sheriff, long pushed aside and half-forgotten, wants no part of it. He's tired. Worn down. Finished with burying friends.
But when innocent blood is spilled and the past comes knocking with a gun in its hand, there's only one man left who knows how the town truly works?and how it breaks.
With enemies on every side and no badge to shield him, the forgotten sheriff steps back into the dust to settle one last reckoning. Justice won't come easy. It never does.
In the end, only one thing matters:
Whether a man can still stand when the whole world has already counted him out.
