Scheduled for release on 18 September 2025, The Ballad of Seven Bastards is a dark, twisted, and brutal novel set in the Old West.

Copper Creek appears to be little more than an unassuming mining community, but the reality is far more sinister. Elder Munroe controls the town, and intends to transform it into his version of the New Jerusalem. However, the elder and his inner circle share a dark secret, creating a fragile bond forged in adversity.

When Elijah Black arrives, seeking work, a moment of misjudgment threatens to send the town, and those who run it, into a spiral of destruction. As suspicion and mistrust bubble to the surface, old relationships are discarded. Those involved quickly turn against each other, and the battle for personal gain becomes all-consuming.

The Ballad of Seven Bastards is a brutal tale of manipulation, greed, and violent retribution.
