The Last Job

Beware of an old man on his last job.

Terrence Wicht is a grizzled Bounty Hunter. He survived two decades in the profession where those younger than him succumb, he battled the wilds and the outlaws, and enemies magical and mundane, but in the end, it was his advancing age that caught up to him.

As advancing civilization mercilessly encroaches on the frontier, and the world becomes better connected than ever before, Bounty Hunters may eventually become things of the past as well.

Down on his luck, burdened by the age, and out of money, the protagonist accepts the suspicious contract of locating the valuable missing shipments for the Federal government and gets entangled in the problems he didn't bargain for. But in the world of magic and technology, where bottled health becomes ever valuable, it might also be a job that solves his biggest problem.

His last job.
