Bowers Wayne Sinclair was more dead than alive when he came home to Sunset, New Mexico, after the Civil War. And now, he wanted to forget the hellish time he'd spent at the Andersonville prison camp. He wanted to marry the girl he had left behind and raise a family on the ranch he owned.

But when Wayne Sinclair returned to town, he was told to get out immediately. He soon learned his ranch had been taken over by vicious, powerful Starr Albright, who had also married the girl Wayne loved. Maybe, if Sinclair were smart, he would have made a fresh start somewhere else. But he'd survived one rough war. And weak as he was, he was ready to start another one--no matter the odds--to get back what was his!
