There were never more than a handful. But they were the law as Texas knew it -- judge, jury, and executioner. For a thousand miles along the Rio Grande, Captain Sul Carter and his men were all that stood between the settlers and the predatory bands of cutthroats, thieves, and murderers.
Now someone from across the border was secretly arming the Indains...someone with money and power...someone who wanted to plunge Texas into the bloody hell of an Indian war and seize the rich frontier wilderness for himself.
They were only a handful of men -- but they were all that stood between Texas and a madman's dream of empire!
