John Lee Johnson

God doesnt make many perfect men, but John Lee Johnson comes close. Hes willing to kill those who do wrong but show mercy, as well. Not preternatural but extraordinary, John has made enemies who will go great lengths to destroy him. As a former confederate soldier, he is beleaguered constantly by once union general Frank McGrew.



McGrew holds John in disdain and now concentrates his hate toward the big Texan who wants nothing more than to live peacefully on his ranch with his beloved wife, Martha. McGrew hatches a plan that forces John to face notorious pit fighter El Toro in Chihuahua, Mexico, and John takes the bait. On the way, he meets an older man named Lambert, but Lambert has secrets of his own.



Meanwhile, Johns rich, bachelor cousin Seth has women throwing themselves at his feet. His friend Floyd concocts a scheme to find the perfect woman for Seth while John prepares to fight a death battle in a hot pit of the Chihuahua Desert. John survived the Civil War; now, he must survive El Toro, McGrew, and those who plot to steal the peace hes worked so hard to find.
