Summary

A hard-edged, character-centered teaser that follows Jack Limekiller as he enters a sun-scorched town, chasing a debt that refuses to stay buried. Along the dusty streets, a hunger for retribution collides with a need to protect a vulnerable stranger, forcing him to confront a past that refuses to stay quiet. The teaser traces his tense negotiations with allies and rivals, the uneasy mercy he’s learned to offer, and the quiet, stubborn resolve that keeps him moving when the ground itself seems to conspire against him.
