The story brings the reader to the Western frontier during the post-Civil War era. Robin, a half breed Texas Ranger, after being reunited with his father, was living and working on the huge BBC ranch. While there he received a letter from friends who had aided him in the past, requesting his help with a rustling problem in Missouri. He and a friend left the Northwest Territory as early as possible in order to avoid the snows of winter and to return the favor. They were both completely unaware that they would become embroiled in a confl ict between a power hungry, brilliantly devious madman who was attempting to gain control of the small valley and the people that lived there. Before the surprising conclusion of this story you will fi nd the Ranger and his friends required to face personal danger, confl icting moral decisions, love and all of its complexities, and diffi cult decisions to make between duty and loyalty. Not only will you fi nd a diversity of characters, but also attempts to deal with the clash of cultures between the Sioux and Arapahoe Nations as the European population push themselves onto sacred hunting grounds in search of gold or land. These were hard times and hard men lived them, and after losing everything they owned at the close of the Civil War, many men would willingly kill if an opportunity to regain a place they can call their own presented itself.
