About this ebook

What is it that pushes a man, cold-bloodedly and with his eyes wide open, into a spot where he knows he's buying into trouble — bad trouble, even to the point of losing his life?

Dan Quaid was no different from most men—yet at forty he left a safe, comfortable farm in settled country, to push out to a rawhide town and a mountain ranch that everyone in town warned him he'd never live to keep.

But Dan had the kind of guts that settled the West—he didn't know when to quit in the first place—and especially when he was told he couldn't stay.
