Territorial Marshals Virgil Cole and Everett Hitch figured things had finally settled down in Appaloosa when Boston Bill Blackβs murder charge was dropped. But all that changed when Augustus Nobel Driggs was transferred to a state side penitentiary just across the border from Mexico. Square-jawed, handsome, and built like a muscled thoroughbred stallion; Driggs manages to intimidate everyone inside the prison walls including the upstart young warden. In a haunting twist of fate, Driggs and a pack of cold-blooded convicts are suddenly on the looseβ and itβs up to any and all Territorial lawmen, including Cole and Hitch, to capture the fugitives and rescue the woman kidnapped during their escape. But nothing is ever quite what it seems with the ever-elusive Driggs. Finally free, heβs quickly on his own furious hunt for a stolen cache of gold and jewels and the men who betrayed him and left him for dead.
With an unlikely and unconventional Yankee detective closing in, Cole and Hitch set off on a massive manhunt. As horses hooves thunder and guns echo deadening reports, Driggs discovers one of the lawmen on his trail is none other than a fellow West Point graduate, heβd just as soon see dead. Ruthless and willing to leave a bloody path of destruction in his wake, Driggs seeks vengeance at any cost.
