Old friends meet new enemies in this gun-smoked Ralph Comptonwestern.

Chip Chippendale met Ransom Barnes after the War Between the States, when the two cowboys drove a herd up from Texas together. But when Chip first laid eyes on Wyoming, he knew he was home, and the two friends split off on different trails.

Each man now has his own ranch, but when Ransom’s home is attacked and burned by a band of marauders, he is faced with ruin—and makes matters worse by gunning down the leader’s son. A target of the most vicious renegade on the high plains, Ransom turns to his old friend Chip. And Chip never forgets his friends—even if it means risking his own life.
