Welcome back to the red days of the West, where centaurs and humans coexist and nothing good lasts. When two bodies turn up in the ashes of a burned homestead, one lawman picks up a trail that leads its bloody way back to Asa and Rook. Nine years after the events of Hotblood! Vol 1: The Land of Promise, Evander Rook is a centaur on the run. When his trail leads to two unidentifiable corpses in a burned-down house, it's the job of US Marshal Zarco to bring him in—dead or alive. But as he gets closer to his quarry, what started as a routine investigation will lead Zarco to the edge of everything he's ever known.
