Meet Moses Kincaid, a Native American bounty hunter who served in the US Army in Desert Storm and Haiti. Now, to pay the bills, he's taken to tracking down wanted criminals in and around Kansas City.

Unaware he has no authority after chasing a man-on-the-run across state lines, Moses scours the Oklahoma map for a guy who ran down two members of the Filthy 13 motorcycle gang and didn't look back.

With news of the Oklahoma City bombing still unfolding on the nightly news, locals don't kindly look upon new faces. As the Anadarko County Sheriff's Department, town riffraff, and blood relatives of the bounty prove to be a series of dead ends, a waitress offers Moses a helping hand--and a chance at something more. Though love comes and goes quickly as this manhunt comes to a head.

After a slip that costs another man his life, Moses finds himself on the wrong side of the gavel. His only choice is to go undercover at Big Mac, looking for the source of a drug flooding this notorious state Pr*son that turns its violent criminals into rodeo clowns--if he doesn't wind up sharing their fate.

David Tromblay served in both the United States Army and Navy before he earned an MFA in Creative Writing from the Institute of American Indian Art in Santa Fe, New Mexico. His memoir “As You Were” (Dzanc Books, 2021) was named one of the best Nonfiction books of 2021 by Kirkus Reviews. He now lives in rural eastern Oklahoma with giant dogs and tiny goats in the midst of his ever-growing gardens and permaculture food forest. Coydog is his fourth book.

Scott Phillips is the author of eight novels and a collection of short stories. His first novel, the Ice Harvest, won the California Book Award silver medal for Best First Fiction and was nominated for the Edgar Award for Best First Novel, for the John Creasey and the Maccallan Daggers, for the Hammett Prize, and for the Anthony Award. It was made into a movie in 2006 starring John Cusack, , Connie Nielsen, Billy Bob Thornton, and Oliver Platt, directed by Harold Ramis and adapted by Richard Russo and Robert Benton. He has wrought havoc at such staid publishing houses as Ballantine/Random House, Picador (UK), Gallimard, Concord Free Press, Counterpoint Press, les éditions la Branche, and others. His current home is with the wonderful people at Soho Press.

Born in Wichita, Kansas, he attended Wichita State University as a French Lit major and studied creative writing under James Lee Burke, whose English Comp 101 class he had randomly selected as a freshman. In Wichita, he worked as a bookstore and record store clerk, photographic equipment salesman, portrait photographer, real estate photographer, and translator. Over the years in France, he worked as a translator/interpreter, French teacher, residential advisor, tour guide, cafeteria manager, and television writer. In California, he made the mistake of getting involved with the screenwriting trade. Most of his work was unproduced or uncredited, but if you made a habit of watching Cinemax in the dead of night back in the ’90s––right about 2 or 3 AM, when the women’s Pr*son movie ended––you may have seen his name on (1996), co-written with David Masiel and director Paul Raimondi. He now lives in St. Louis with his wife and daughter.
