Ben Alan Davis had been sufficiently quick and deadly in his youth, to gain him a remembered reputation many years after he had been forced to leave the country of his birth and seek sanctuary above the Canadian border. Years later, and after the untimely death of his wife, with a semi-tame hawk perched on the rump of his not so tame, cantankerous old one-eyed mule, Ben reenters his home country in search of a known, hidden gold mine. His encounter with a notorious old mountain man, his eventual reunion with his three gun-handy sons, and the love of a young captive girl, eventually complicate his life to the point of complete havoc. The location of the golden plateau is a mystery to all who accompany Ben Davis, even after they reach their destination.A deadly and unforgiving enemy-because Ben had been forced to kill the man’s only son in a gun-battle not of his choosing-relentlessly pursues Ben and the group with him. His new enemy, John Hart, obstinately follows them from the Montana Rocky Mountains, all the way to Southern Texas. While in Texas to reunite with his mother and father, Ben and his group come into conflict with Hart and his gang, as well as the Union Army, who is attempting to assist Carpetbaggers in confiscating the Davis’ original homestead. All Ben Davis, his family and friends really want, is to round up a herd of Longhorns and drive them back to a paradise valley. A valley Ben found in the Colorado Territory as a child running from the law...
