Winston was a man who was unlikely to win a foot race, yet that didn't stop him from becoming a world-class runner--from his problems.

In a frontier town full of tough men, he was a misfit, and he knew it. To make matters worse, some of those tough men were out to get him. He knew that too. What he didn't know was that running away this time wouldn't be easy, as trouble and even death itself are chasing after him.

Espionage, international counterfeiting, murder, greed, pride, and misguided patriotism--all collide with explosive results as Winston discovers the true meaning of courage and learns to fight back.
