Summary
The King in Yellow has been terrorizing the west for the past three years. Some call him a phantom; some believe him to be death incarnate. Nobody has seen his face and lived to tell the tale.
Now, he's been spotted far too close to home for the comfort of Arthur Lester, the deputy of Arkham. An outsider since his arrival and desperate to protect his only daughter, Arthur is willing to chase answers--and justice--to the death.
After a brush with the elusive outlaw leaves him half-blind, separated from Faroe, and framed for the murder of his sheriff, Arthur turns up desperate at the town of Blackdeer and falls into the hands of John Doe, who tends to his secrets the way others tend to their gardens. John agrees to help Arthur track down the King, but along the way, both of them will find far more than they bargained for.
Then, far across the bloodstained desert, the Devil himself will make a wager: how far will a man go for his freedom, and what will he sacrifice for those he loves?
