Wanted: Dead or Alive She is the most wanted woman West of the Mississippi. Rescued, raised, and trained by the notorious Wolf Pack, by now the outlaw Belladonna is the best there is. The bounties on her head are for multiple stage and train robberies, as well as a variety of murders - particularly for the killing of a dozen men in Abilene who tried to lynch the Pack. The only criminals higher on the government's official wanted list are Jesse James and Geronimo.
But Belle Stark is not what all the papers and wanted posters say - though she's the first to admit that she's an outlaw, and proud of it. The lawmen, gamblers, and badmen she knows call her friend or lover, her enemies call her the Devil's Daughter. But the one man who matters more than all the others combined calls her his baby.
Her husband, the outlaw leader better known as The Wolf, dies in her arms in the streets of New Orleans, gunned down by men he called friends. Now Belle and what's left of the Wolf Pack will hunt down his killers, through all the states and territories of the West if they have to. And when they find them, there will be hell to pay.
Helped and hindered along her path by some of the West's most infamous lawmen, shootists, and outlaws, the ultimate choice Belle faces is the same one she's been given since she was twelve - dead or alive. And Belladonna always picks dead. Steel is forged through fire, perfection is achieved through unrelenting practice and application, and legends are made not through ease but through trial.
