Publisher's Synopsis
A lone motorcycle rider camping in the desert of Arizona finds an unconcscious woman in a small arroyo near his camp. Exhausted and suffering exposure in the earlier heat of the desert, she has stumbled and fallen in the dark. He hears the noise near his camp, finds her, and carries her to his camp...then awakens in the night to find himself in a deadly fight for his life. She has apparently been found by the men who had been pursuing her earlier that afternoon. He and the woman escape, only to be pursued along the highways through the desert of Arizona and into the mountains of Colorado by lawless members of a motorcycle club. Long since retired, he is not prepared physically or mentally to deal with pursuers who are younger, stronger, and arrogantly intent on taking the woman by force. It becomes clear that he can only survive by using skills and experience from his past that he has only recently begun to come to terms with. Will a confrontation with these lawless men lead to his undoing?
