Reed Haddok was unconscious. Strong hands lifted him and took him to safety. Haddok owed his life to the owner of those hands. Time taught him that they belonged to a mysterious Indian, but Haddok didn't have a name, a face, or a voice to use in identifying him. But he owed him. If a man was owed a whipping or a thank-you by Reed Haddok, you could count on him to pay his debt. He soon gets his chance when he finds that the man who saved his life-Tall Tree-is now the wounded captive of an Apache war party. Haddock immediately sets out to save his new Indian friend and has a little fun at the expense of the Apaches as well. The heart pounding actions that make up the rescue, escape, and trek back to Tall Tree's hidden village take a series of riveting, fast paced turns that will make the reader grab the saddle horn and hang on for dear life.
