From Library Journal
It is 1846 in New Mexico. Jacob Tamarron, retired trapper, finds home and wife on a Mexican ranch in the Pecos River Valley. All is well until the greedy eyes of Texas Senator Caverhill fall on Mexican holdings. His hirelings, a gang of vicious killers, seize ranches, including Jacob's, slaughtering all dwellers. Jacob teams up with a Comanche who has lost three families to avenge the massacres. Although sometimes painful reading, the story is absorbing, for it is swiftly paced and filled with action. Yet the author takes time to describe graphically the land he obviously loves. Sister Avila, Acad. of the Holy Angels, Minneapolis
