The plot unfolds in episodic chapters of chases, ambushes, captures, and escapes, with recurring confrontations involving a Blackfeet band and a medicine man. A subplot about a woman’s quest for vengeance and stolen emeralds deepens the intrigue, while troopers and scouts set traps and mount pursuits that lead to battles, surprises, and the eventual apprehension of principal antagonists.
