It’s 1868 and many people are relying on the skills of scout Drake Sagewater.

Drake is helping settlers on their way to California. The Andrews family, riding in a canvas wagon, has been attacked by a shrewd renegade from the Apache Nation, named Jace.

With a rag-tagged band of fellow renegades, Jace is making life miserable, and sometimes deadly, for settlers. That is the case with the migrating Andrews family, who loses their patriarch, Jed Andrews, in a raid. While seeking justice, Jed’s daughter, Lydia, takes a shine to the handsome young Drake Sagewater.

Drake’s challenge is daunting. Jace is trying to hatch a diabolical plan to have settlers and Apaches at each other’s throats for decades. The only thing in Jace’s way is Drake and a fellow scout, Bold Rover, a Navajo and U.S. Army scout.

It won’t be easy for the scouts, as Drake and his companion go toe-to-toe against Jace and try to avenge Jed’s senseless and violent death.

Another classic western with respectful romance and women as strong frontier folk from author William Black.
