Publisher's Synopsis
Escaped convict, Jack Johnson, is loose in southern Colorado. He's bent on revenge. When he's released early in error, Jack takes the opportunity to plan murder. His target is the attorney who put him away for vehicular homicide. Retired cop, Tom Padgett from Kentucky, seems to always be in the wrong place at the right time. He's in Colorado to recover after killing the Nicholas County Sheriff and escape his nightmares and dreams about events he should have no knowledge of. Is he responsible for more than he's letting on? When Johnson's and Padgett's paths collide, it leads to a violent confrontation and manhunt in rugged mountain terrain. But who's hunting whom? The quest to bring Johnson down has turned into something entirely different. Now it's personal. In more ways than one. Blood in the Wind's sharp dialogue and original characters will place you squarely in southern Colorado. You'll feel the fierce wind and envision the wild, sometimes harsh, but beautiful terrain through the eyes of his characters. Just when you think you know who the good guy is, Young will make you wonder what else there is to learn about the enigmatic Tom Padgett.
