Grady Hart rides into a town that should have stayed buried.Perdition is a place of dust, silence, and unfinished business—a town filled with ghosts of the living and the dead. Grady came searching for answers about the missing year that tore his life apart. Instead, he finds accusation, betrayal, and a past that refuses to loosen its grip.Saul Barlow was once his commanding officer. Once, a brother in arms. Now, he’s a man who believes Grady deserted his unit and left good men to die. Grady doesn’t remember what happened. Saul does.As old alliances fracture and long-buried resentment erupts inside a dim saloon, the truth edges closer—but not without blood. And with Saul’s final words, a new name surfaces from the shadows:Private Tom Parker. Atlanta, Georgia.The mystery deepens. The cost rises.This is not a story about redemption.It’s about memory, guilt, and the men who survive war only to fight it again.
