Behind the scenes in Washington, DC, an international group of criminals called the Network—led by a cold-blooded man known as Code Alpha—is bent on acquiring the land and money they need to bring about their vision for a new world order. But when they set their sights on Farley and Thelma Brodines' ranch in Salt Flats, Texas, they have no idea what they're up against. The Brodines have powerful friends. Reid Matthews is protected by an ancestral Comanche spirit, the Keeper of the Great Raptors. And Matthews is joined by Cajun crack shot Roland Guidry and his spitfire of a wife, Adele; and lifetime cowboy Bill Calendar and his wife, Willie, her Winchester rifle always at her side. When the Network's bid to take over the ranch goes wrong, the Brodines' granddaughter and ranch manager are forced to flee into the wilderness to escape the killers sent to do Code Alpha's dirty work. Will Reid and his friends be able to uncover the Network's nefarious plot before time runs out?
