     "No one knew how Avery John Creede got the scar on his face.
     No one except Avery and the one who did it. He never talked about it. Most who knew him figured the other person dead. Not the type of scar that makes you wince and turn your head, and never covered by a beard, it hung high on his cheek bone like a badge of honor."


     So begins the story of Avery John Creede who rides into Fort Benton, Montana, in the 1880s for a reunion with old army pals. He discovers a running gun fight with a notorious outlaw and two women determined to distract him, each for her own reasons. The dark haired beauty, Carla Logonaire, is an old flame and the gal of Avery's dreams. Her daddy made his mega-fortune with imported glass and partnered with Theodore Roosevelt, Sr. Avery buys a diamond and sapphire ring for her, just in case.
     Meanwhile, he's accosted by Sunny, the caustic mystery blonde in the yellow dress, who threatens to kill him for jailing her bank robbery friends. She wants him dead. Avery desires only a little peace and quiet.
     And just as things get real hectic, Avery's 15-year-old tenderfoot nephew, Ace, shows up with disturbing news. Avery's new sidekick manages to add to the mix of complications...and reminds his uncle of his own youth.
