Ramrod Adams of the Border Patrol tracks down a slippery horse trader named Jute Flagg, whose scheme to sell fake palominos has left ranchers swindled and suspicion falling on an innocent man back in Mesa Basin. Working undercover in Sagewood, Adams uncovers Flagg's bleaching operation—but gets caught and thrown aboard a departing train headed for a deadly drop at Devil's Pass. With only his wits and ten minutes before the point of no return, Adams must fight his way free and stop Flagg's operation before the evidence vanishes forever.
Border Patrol officer Jeff Lassiter and his deputy Tad Wayne race to discover why the peaceful Zuni people have suddenly taken up arms and are marching toward the frontier town of Jackknife.

Now Lassiter must use both diplomacy and courage to save his town, protect the Zunis, and stop the outlaws' mad search before blood spills across the territory.

As Fanning's schemes grow deadlier, Dawson must escape his captors and race against time to stop a catastrophic stampede that could wipe out everyone he came to protect.
