      Outlaws left him with one arm, which he replaced with a specially rigged .12 gauge shotgun. Now Dr. John "Shotgun" Bishop cures evil one barrel at a time. But even in the darkest days of the Civil War, he never saw anything like the new scourge of germ warfare. Diseased corpses dumped in wells, midnight raids bombarding women and children with infected blood, spreading plague through the Cheyenne nation. The culprits are led by Shotgun's one-time protégé, a doctor driven insane by the war. And when the psychopath frames Shotgun for the plague-murders, he has only one choice to stop him: load up -- and start shooting.

      He lost his arm to outlaws. Replaced it with a double-barreled boom stick. Now Civil War veteran Dr. John Bishop is armed for justice--and extremely dangerous. They call him. . . Shotgun The Bleeding Ground John"Shotgun" Bishop has tangled with plenty of lowlifes in his time--and he's got the missing limb to prove it. But few sink as low as his own brother Devlin, a crazy-mean cuss who'd steal the horns off the devil himself. This time, Dev's got his cold black heart set on taking over John Chisum's land, destroying the cattle king's dream of building a new town and laying down tracks for the railroad. So Chisum hires Shotgun and his Cheyenne partner, White Fox, to protect his investment. But when the Bishop family feud turns into an all-out turf war, Shotgun ends up on the wrong side of the law--stuck in the middle between the devil he knows and two deadly new players. Their names are Billy the Kid and Pat Garrett. And this time, there will be blood. . .
