Driving those horses across Cheyenne territory is a crazy risk, but the only alternative is to give up the ranch. For the sake of his boss, Kendo takes the job—so long as he can bring seven good men with him. But in this part of the West, few trustworthy men can be found. The trouble comes not from the Cheyenne, but from three of Kendo’s fellow riders, who don’t hesitate when they get a chance to take the herd and leave Kendo bleeding to death on the open range. Lost, exposed, and without a horse, Kendo needs a miracle to make it back to civilization. But he has far bigger plans than mere survival. First, he wants the bullet out of his back. Next, he wants to rescue the herd. And then, when the time comes, he will savor the bloody flavor of vengeance.
