In the dusty ghost town of Reobe City, Juan Mestizo and Archimedes arrive with a dying horse and a growing mystery—someone poisoned the animal, and when Juan is shot, he’s left for dead. He finds Tixi, a survivor with a harrowing past: outlaws slaughtered her family and enslaved her, until she fought back and killed the last of them. Now, with the outlaw still alive and Archimedes wounded, the trio must flee the ruins of the town on a broken wagon, dragging their injured companion toward the nearest doctor.
Juan Mestizo sets out to find Eddie Carter at the penitentiary, only to be turned away as a half breed and thrown in jail when tensions flare. While Archimedes and Tixi work to free him, Eddie escapes too—just before a fatal confrontation with the law. Now on the run together, Juan, Archimedes, and Tixi vanish into the frontier, bound by a shared past and no clear destination.
