One hundred factory-new repeating rifles had gone missing, and if they fell into the wrong hands, the West would run red with blood.
The job of finding them and returning them to the Army fell to Shane Preston and Jonah Jones. But along the way they collected a rag-tag bunch of helpers, from a Mormon missionary to a disgraced, back-shooting sheriff. And even when they located the rifles, getting them back to Fort Dumas wasn't going to be easy. The Mexican outlaw Pedro Mantez wanted those weapons, and he didn't care how many innocent people his fifty-strong army of renegades had to kill to get them!
