Tanner Bland left his Virginia home to fight for Dixie, and returns riding a fine horse. Most folks would call that a profit - until they consider his loss. With everyone thinking the soldier dead, his younger brother marries Tanner's fiancee. His home no longer his own, Tanner heads west to join an old army pal. But the wagon train the men join is not what they are hoping for. In the train with them are the four Leach brothers, each one meaner than the next. Now, if Tanner and his buddy want to make it to Montana alive, they'll have to keep their enemies close... and their weapons closer.
