In New Mexico the old way of life was dying-and so-called civilization had arrived on the wild frontier. The resulting Madison County Wars pitted neighbor against neighbor in a fight for the sould of a land that could not be possessed. Caught in the turmoil were: Patrick Cutler, a brave cavalry officer who respected his "enemies" and despised his "friends"; Johnny Angell, a baby-faced gunman pushed by tragic events to the wrong side of the law; Lily Maginnis, battling corruption, injustice and her own passionate nature; and Jack Grant, a gunman turned lawman, sworn to hunt down a man he once rode with -now a legendary hero. And meanwhile, a band of proud Apaches planned one last drive to escape the reservation and ride free once again across the unforgiving land of their ancestors.
