Summary"When Johnny Rourke returned from the war to old Benj Tramer's Bandera spread, he found that there was no peace along the Rio Grande. Cattle was being rustled, and men who had been loath to kill for their country's sake were ready enough to kill for profit. Such a man was Tom Cana, who had been made foreman of the Bandera during Johnny's absence. Cana didn't take easily to Johnny's reinstatement. He was open, too, in accusing friendly neighbor Roque Sandison of rustling the Bandera cattle. And the seeds of violence were sown. To add to the complications, Barbara Tramer's attitude towards Johnny had changed completely. Where there was once love, there was now hatred--and Johnny found no consolation in the favors shown him by the fascinating Mexican girl, Lita. With emotions at fever-heat, it was not long before guns blazed savagely in the fight to protect the Bandera stock."--Back cover.
