It was an old Indian tale.

A valley of wild horses that the natives believed ancestors used to carry brave warriors off into the spirit world when they died.

Kauteenowah.

A valley known only to the Lakota. A place so sacred it was forbidden for outsiders to venture there.

But Will Travis has other plans.

Misfortune has all but ruined him.

His only chance now is to find the herd and bring it in if, in fact, it actually exists.

The ancient ones warn that whoever is unworthy and dares to disturb the valley will die.

But desperate men often do desperate things, and Travis is desperate.

Now, he is about to see just how real that warning is.
