A young Texas Ranger's quest for justice in the lawless frontier of Texas.

In time, they would become known as the Texas Rangers."—Elmer Kelton Rusty Shannon, an intense, red-haired young man, rides into Fort Belknap on the Brazos River and joins the Texas Rangers. Years before, Mike Shannon rescued Rusty from a Comanche war party and became his adoptive father. Recently, Mike was bushwhacked and killed, a death that still haunts Rusty. Convinced he knows the identity of Mike's killers, Rusty is determined to bring them to justice. With Texas now in the throes of seceding from the Union, Rusty finds himself fighting for the law in a lawless land, while also protecting the life of the woman he loves. As if that weren't enough, Rusty is heading for a showdown with the Comanche warrior who killed his family over twenty years ago.
