Texas Ranger Ira Pearson is trailing a herd of rustled cattle when he is ambushed and left for dead. Angry and sore, he enlists the help of retired Ranger Bert Weston in the pursuit.
But whoever is driving this herd of stolen cattle, and apparently using outlaws to drive them, is not worried about being caught. In fact, it almost seems as if they are leading Ira into a trap.
A West Texas mystery as Ira Pearson is drawn further and further into a black widow's web.
