By The Hands of Men

Texas lawman Orrin Martin has a problem, and a big one at that. Two headless animals found in his small coastal town, and now? A decapitated body lying like a sack of garbage at the edge of an abandoned railroad track. Oh, and checking into the local motel a few days before? A former resident who just returned home after an eight-year stint in Huntsville for murder. Wrestling with a dark secret that could cost him his shield and struggling to cope with the death of his wife to cancer twenty-four months earlier, Orrin races to uphold his promise to protect and serve the residents of his hometown. He better do it quickly because the killer? He's not done yet, not by a long shot. BY THE HANDS OF MEN is a story of resolve, of faith, of the changes that are forced upon us by powers and circumstances beyond our understanding. And it's a story of the ultimate war waged between an unknown future and a past that seeks to drag us down to the depths of oblivion ... if we let it.
