Hawk: The Arizona Territory Trail of Fire & Blood
The Apache wars are rising in the Arizona Territory, and Hawk stands in the crossfire.
Half Apache, half white, the grandson of Cochise was shaped by two warring the rugged cavalry posts that sheltered him as a young boy and his grandfather's fierce Chiricahua warriors who trained him as a teen. Wanting peace but trapped in a storm of raids, reprisals, and betrayal, Hawk must decide who he'll fight for and what he’s willing to sacrifice.
Through the wild Chiricahua canyons, the treacherous Sierra Madre mountains, and the unforgiving Arizona deserts, every mile tests Hawk’s courage. In this land where legends rise from dust and danger, Hawk knows every choice carries a cost — often paid in blood.

good story over told.
Somewhat cliched western which became prolix over the final third.
Nevertheless, good story and characters, although the protagonist seemed to lose some of his developed insight, knowledge and wisdom in places to suit the story. Still good enough for four stars!

Please make Hawk a series, Like the Great Crow Killer series.
I read every word Alfred Dennis writes. He is a Legend in Western Literature. This was such an enjoyable read. His characters are addictive. Any novel he writes stays on the bookshelf to read again. Highly recommend.
