In the mean time later that afternoon two twin brothers Don and Billy Kilpatrick who are gunfighters are shot on their way to Marble after they killed seven men over a crooked card game in a Redstone saloon. When they ride into town and fall off their horses, sheriff Coldstar mistakenly thinks they have something to do with Patty’s family’s murders and they are locked up. It is a long recovery for all three people and slowly a friendship is formed.

When spring arrives after kneeling besides her father’s grave and saying goodbye she vows to find the six men whose horses carried the triple ‘L’ brand and kill them. Her journey will take her and the two brothers to Colorado Springs, Colorado where Patty will buy a rundown saloon and renovate it. Patty figures that sooner or later the six men who killed her family and shot her will one day walk into her saloon. This book has a hundred characters in it and is the best book of the eleven part series I have written since 2011.
