In the secret heart of London, under the cover of endless darkness, is the Nightside. But enter at your own risk. The party animals who live here may be as inhuman as their appetites... My name is John Taylor. The Nightside is my home, and I’ve got a brand new full-time job there (in addition to my private eye work) as Walker—the Voice of the Authorities. I’m also marrying the love of my life, Suzie Shooter, the Nightside’s most fearsome bounty-hunter. But nothing comes easy here. Not life. Not death. And for certain, not happily-ever-after. Before I can say “I do,” I have one more case to solve as a private eye—and my first assignment as Walker. Both jobs would be a lot easier to accomplish if I weren’t on the run, from friends and enemies alike. And if my bride-to-be weren’t out to collect the bounty on my head...

Seven-Hawks-Dancing, a Cheyenne Warrior whose white name is Jed Church, is riding southbound in Wyoming Territory. His destination is a ranch, the Double-W, near the town of Medicine Bow. Waiting for him there is Molly Wells, owner of the ranch, and Jed's intended bride. He plans to marry her and spend the better part of a month with her before he reports to the territorial offices to be sworn in as Deputy U.S. Marshal. Before he can reach Medicine Bow, the silence, as well as his plans, are shattered by the sound of gunfire.

Jed and his brother, Bear-That-Walks-The-Sky, War Chief of the Cheyenne Crazy Dog Society, will have to struggle with the mystery that will end up involving Molly and the Double-W, Bear and the Cheyenne, visitors from a foreign land, and a whole passel of interested parties before the mystery is solved.
