Lord Huntoun and his entourage arrive in the unforgiving llano of the Big Bend in West Texas in search of the bones of a prehistoric creature rumored to lie in a dry wash far out in Apacheria. Among his party is his willful daughter Arabella, as sure with a rifle or upon a horse as any man after childhood in the Hindu Kush. What begins as a grand adventure in a new land swiftly turns to a nightmare as the expedition encounters not only a Mescalero war band but a gang of gunmen sent by an eastern robber baron with orders to see that the foreigners never leave the desert alive.

Chuck Dixon brings you his latest action western, a rattlesnake mean epic told with action, authority, and the storytelling power for which he's always been known.
