When Jake and Evangeline arrive in central Texas, they believe they will never again see the kind of danger they faced in the aftermath of Custer’s massacre at Little Bighorn. They couldn’t have been more wrong. A short period of tranquility in Texas is followed by a deadly war with an outlaw gang called the Norwood Mob. The Mob’s goal is to take the property of farmers and ranchers through murder and intimidation. Jake and Evangeline have a choice. They can surrender to the demands of the Mob and leave the place they love, or they can continue to fight against overwhelming odds. There is little chance they can win.
