When ranch hands turn bad, four cowboys go to war to protect their boss Four men crouch in the meager shelter of Rose Canyon, vowing revenge against the man who kicked them off the MM Ranch. Two are old hands who have been punching cattle since the wild days of the Old West. One is a youngster, desperate to make a reputation as a hard man. And the last is Drew Tango, a lawman turned bad with a look in his eyes that marks him as a killer. The MM’s owner lies dying in his bed, and his foreman has a scheme to steal the ranch. Firing these four men was the first step. The next one will be war. Tango leads the men back to the MM to protect Roberta, the rightful heir to the ranch. She may have legal title to the land, but Drew Tango knows that in this country, the only law is the gun.

On a tortuous cattle drive, a cowboy battles weather, Comanches, and his own men The land is lush—but bare of cattle. Colonel Tremaine never expected his ranch’s grass to come in so thick, and with his health failing, the old soldier lacks the strength to assemble the kind of herd that could take advantage of nature’s bounty. He reaches out to Kirby McBride, an old recruit from his army days, and begs him for a favor. Once, the colonel saved Kirby’s life. Now Kirby will save his. He sends Kirby to Mexico to collect a thousand-head herd from the drought-ravaged ranch of Don Trujillo-Lopez. Drive the cattle north, fatten them on Tremaine’s grass, and he and the don can split the profits. But when jealousy overwhelms the drive and some of Kirby’s own men prove treacherous, death threatens the operation. As Kirby McBride drives into Devil’s Canyon, a fortune hangs in the balance—and so does his life.

In the Arizona wasteland, a wanderer meets a man he cannot trust Cameron Black gallops across the alkali flats on a stolen horse, a Henry rifle at his side. Horse theft is a hanging offense in Arizona, but that means nothing to Cam. If the law catches up to him, they can only hang him once, and he has already been sentenced to die. Just twelve days earlier Cam was a law-abiding man, making his way to Tombstone in hopes of finding work. He was nearly there when he met Stony, a hardened old salt who offered to share the trail with him. This man would save Cam’s life a half-dozen times in the next few days—but he is also the reason Cam would face the hangman’s rope. Fleeing the law, Cam takes refuge in the desert, a desperate gamble that nearly amounts to a death sentence of its own. Tombstone is the most dangerous town in the West—but the wasteland around it is far deadlier.
