During a daring and mysterious train robbery, in 1908, two U.S. Marshals are murdered, and half a million dollars in rare Colombian emeralds are stolen. It's up to U.S. Marshal Jack Garrison to find the ruthless killer and recover the emeralds. The few clues Jack uncovers leads him to Kedra Moore, a beautiful Nahtow Indian. From the moment he looks into Kedra's hypnotic gold eyes, Jack feels a connection to her that he can't understand. The mounting evidence says Kedra Moore is a coldblooded killer, something Jack's heart doesn't want to accept. Only when the link that connects them comes to light, and the honor of Kedra's Nahtow heritage is revealed, will Jack understand his attraction to Kedra. But even that binding link won't keep Jack from his duty as a marshal. Unless he can find proof of Kedra's innocence-she will hang.
