Publisher's Synopsis
In 1879 Arizona the frontier is ablaze. A small band of renegade Apaches have jumped the desolate San Carlos Reservation. They kidnap a white woman and leave her companion for dead as they make their deadly run for the Mexican border, with the thinly-stretched cavalry in hot pursuit. While the soldiers are on their futile mission, a band of murderous outlaws steal an Army payroll, killing the guard detail, and set out on a trail of slaughter across the burning Arizona desert. Into this treacherous mix rides Joel Bannon, who sets out to rescue the woman from the Apaches, only to find he's trapped between the warring Indians and the brutal outlaws. Bannon's only way out is with his guns and fists, calling upon all his enormous survival skills to save himself and the woman. But Sara Todd harbors a deadly secret of her own. In his fight against Indians and outlaws, Bannon slowly realizes the woman might ultimately be the most dangerous adversary of all as the chase leads to a thrilling shootout. This hard-hitting tale of gunfire and betrayal is straight from the bloody pages of American history.
