Rather than become a killer himself, Tiger Eye Reeves leaves his feud-scarred home down on the Brazos River in Texas and goes to Montana looking for a job as a cowboy. As a scout for the Poole outfit, who are waging a war against "nesters," the kid meets Nellie Murray. When he sees her father shot down in cold blood in front of his own door by a Poole rider, he vows war against all killers. But can he turn traitor to Poole? Can he go back on his own resolve never to be a killer himself? An exciting western as only B.M. Bower could tell it!
