About this item
At the end of State Road 170 and just past a ghost town lies Artemis, population 2,500. The townspeople had sought out this remote corner of Western Texas in hopes of living lives of solitude and independence. None of them realized that their small town would become a hot spot for Mexican drug runners, whose turf battles have turned both sides of the Rio Grande into a war zone. Still, many of the locals would rather take the law into their own hands than get help from police chief Josie Gray, even when theyre up against a cartels private army. After arresting one of the cartels hit men and killing another, Josie finds her life at risk for doing a job that many people would rather see her quit. And when the towns self-appointed protector of the Second Amendment is murdered and his cache of weapons disappears, its clear that she doesnt have to pick sides in this war.
