Jason Peares, known only as Jay, cleared his name of murder charges in a court of law, but he still leads the life of a man on the run, always looking over his shoulder for some bounty hunter with an old dodger, a troublemaker looking for a fight, or a gunslinger trying to build a reputation. Trusting no one had become a way of life.
After finishing a cattle drive, Jay reluctantly accepts a job as peacekeeper in Bronco, Texas. Mr. Pritchett wants some squatters cleared off land he needs. But as Jay gets to know the squatters, especially Marabelle Hopkins, he starts to see that while Pritchett talked about peace, he was secretly waging a brutal and deadly war against the homesteaders. Jay had considered hanging up his guns and settling down to a peaceful "normal" life, but now he finds that two men stand in his way-a ruthless land and cattle baron and a deadly gunfighter named Slade who Jay once called a friend.
This is an action-packed Old West story about the valiant struggle of the downtrodden and what can happen when people are willing to reach out to one another.
