A Nation's Keeper: An Alamo Novel

The United States is collapsing into ruin. Several states have aligned themselves with Texas to form a new nation, the Republic of United Libertarians. The US acts immediately to destabilize and recover the rogue states through espionage and subversion. The RUL answers back by enlisting the service of a select few citizen-soldiers, men who can operate beyond the rule of law to protect the foundling republic from such threats. Of these enforcers, Alamo is unsurpassed and serves as the governor's right hand. He travels the republic dispensing justice, often from the barrel of a gun. His notoriety is legend as is the bounty on his head. The US will stop at nothing to finish him, targeting friends, loved ones, and associates in an effort to hurt or compromise him, so his strict policy is to not let anyone close. A chance encounter with Anna, a beautiful rancher in the Texas Hill country, soon has Alamo reconsidering his staunch beliefs. He has much in common with her as well as the ranch hands who protect her interests, hard men and former soldiers who can recognize a little of themselves in the lone gunman who protects the RUL. A top operative, Alan Combs, has been ordered to put an end to the continued hindrance of the United States' schemes. He's entered the RUL to locate Alamo and either capture or kill him. A game of hunter versus hunter commences, a game that Alamo must win before the woman he's invited into his life becomes yet another victim of his profession. 289
