Unwilling to fire, he has been tortured for decades by the brutal end that he could have spared her.

Now Jake learns that his daughter Dru wants to marry Apache foreman Nub DeJarnett. Even before Jake can process the news, Mexican bandits kidnap Dru and her cousin Ruthie.

Through a mysterious desert, Jake and Nub must give chase in this novel based on actual events"--
