In this Ralph Compton western, a man with the courage to take a stand goes up against an outlaw cavalry that can't be stopped....
Ā
In Mexico, Wes Stone picked up his fatherās gun, rode his fatherās horse, and took on his fatherās enemies. In California, he planted a band of savage criminals in the ground. Now Stone is heading up to the plains of Colorado, where a new kind of war has begun.
Ā
A dangerous band of mercenaries is going for the goldāenough to bankrupt the entire country. Their scheme: to raid four U.S. mints. Their weapon: an armored train tearing through the West like a fire-powered battle-ax on wheels.
Ā
From Durango to Dodge City, across a rugged land stained with blood, gold, and treachery, Stone follows a violent trail of honor. All that stands between victory and death is a quick-draw reflexāand the kind of .44-caliber justice that could tame the West and turn Stone into a legend.
