  • ‘Stoneheart’,
  • that’s
  • what
  • the
  • Cheyenne
  • called
  • him
  • back
  • in
  • the
  • old
  • days. Caleb
  • Barnes
  • always
  • went
  • in
  • hard
  • that
  • way,
  • in
  • fact
  • the
  • same
  • way
  • he
  • had
  • lived
  • his
  • whole
  • life,
  • on
  • a
  • knife-edge
  • with
  • the
  • cold
  • feel
  • of
  • a
  • Colt
  • .45
  • pistol
  • and
  • the
  • blade
  • of
  • a
  • Bowie
  • knife
  • not
  • far
  • from
  • his
  • reach. But
  • he
  • is
  • older
  • now
  • and
  • rides
  • into
  • town
  • with
  • a
  • simple
  • task
  • in
  • mind,
  • to
  • make
  • amends.
  • Though,
  • it
  • proves
  • to
  • be
  • something
  • a
  • sight
  • more
  • complicated
  • than
  • a
  • gesture
  • of
  • good
  • will.
  • To
  • put
  • things
  • right
  • and
  • protect
  • those
  • he
  • values,
  • Caleb
  • has
  • to
  • find
  • a
  • whole
  • load
  • of
  • cash
  • money. One
  • powerful
  • man
  • stands
  • in
  • the
  • way
  • of
  • his
  • mission,
  • so
  • when
  • Caleb
  • comes
  • up
  • against
  • the
  • tyrannical
  • Elisha
  • Foy,
  • the
  • town
  • can
  • expect
  • only
  • bloody
  • deeds
  • to
  • follow. Caleb
  • must
  • break
  • all
  • the
  • rules
  • and
  • become
  • once
  • more
  • the
  • person
  • he
  • had
  • hoped
  • to
  • leave
  • behind
  • forever,
  • a
  • cold
  • killer
  • with
  • a
  • heart
  • of stone.
