About This Book

Young cowboys and their companions set out on a western roundup and become entangled with a raiding band of Yaquis crossing the border. Siblings Rosemary and Floyd are captured during the attack and bound to horses while their friends and townsfolk engage in firefights and attempts at rescue. The narrative follows the captives' struggles, daring escapes, and the leader Paz's maneuvers, interspersed with pursuit, ambushes, and troop engagements. Themes of courage, loyalty, resourcefulness, and frontier danger drive a fast-paced adventure structured as episodic chapters of pursuit, captivity, and rescue.
