Cut Them Down

The Town Demands Justice, But the Truth Moves in the Shadows. The Gallows Won't Wait.

A brutal murder. A swift arrest. Justice should be simple, but in Shannon, Oregon, nothing ever is.

Sheriff Everett Wallace and Deputy Jake Reeves know the price of getting things wrong. Both men have scars-some from war, some from regrets they never outran. So when they arrest a man accused of a gruesome killing, they are sure they've done their duty.

But then Jake receives a cryptic note: You got the wrong man.

Everett dismisses it as a cruel joke, but Jake can't shake the feeling in his gut. He's seen innocent men fall before, and the weight of one more on his conscience might just break him. But reopening the case means defying his best friend, turning against the town's thirst for justice, and putting himself and his family in the crosshairs. There are powerful forces at work in Shannon, and someone will do anything-lie, threaten, even kill-to make sure their secrets stay buried.

With the trial only days away and the gallows waiting, Jake and Everett face an impossible choice: let an innocent man hang and live with the guilt, or fight for the truth and risk becoming the next target.

One thing is certain-before this is over, blood will stain the streets of Shannon.

A high-stakes Western thriller with mystery, betrayal, and a heart-pounding final reckoning. Justice will be served-but at what cost?
