Grant to the role of enforcer in America’s untamed regions. Now “the Shadow Rider” patrols the west, assuring that wrongs are righted by any means necessary. When the Apaches come under siege for murders they didn’t commit, Cody’s mission is to find the truth—and to kill those who started this bloody chaos…even if it means laying down his own life. APACHE SUNDOWN Zak Cody is on the trail of the gold-seeking killer who made him an orphan. But while he’s taking down his adversary’s hired guns, their leader, Ben Trask, continues to elude him as he brews a poisonous stew of betrayal, death, and lies in a plan that will bring about the slaughter of a proud, native people. Now Cody must battle numerous obstacles to reach the one man who might help him prevent a massacre—the warrior named Cochise. “Sherman knows how to make a western gallop.” — Publishers Weekly

About the author

Jory Sherman was born in Minnesota and grew up in West Texas, Louisiana, and Colorado. He was a magazine editor for a time and had some of his work published, including some poetry, short stories and articles. Sherman had a friend who owned a publishing company and asked him to write a novel for the company. From that offer came five more novels, all written in one year. He wrote the supernatural mystery series, "Chill," which was somewhat revolutionary for the times, but which earned him an eight book contract. He then came up with the idea for "Rivers West," a series which had each book written by a different western author. Then came the "Baron Saga," the first of which was "Grass Kingdom" which earned Sherman a nomination for the Pulitzer Prize in Letters. Sherman has also won the Spur Award for his contribution to Western Literature.
