On a seldom-used smugglers' trail between Mexico and Austin,
a man lies dying. Texas Ranger Chick Bowdrie hears the shots ring
out in the canyon, but he can't get to the man before he dies.
Bowdrie takes the stranger's body to Valverde, the nearest town.
Upon arriving at Valverde, a crowd gathers, watchful and silent
as Bowdrie tells his story to the sheriff. In the crowd is the
beautiful blonde Rose Murray, owner of the RM Ranch. She appears
especially affected by the sight of the dead stranger. Rose explains
to Bowdrie that she has reason to believe the stranger was coming
to see her in order to right a terrible wrong. Twenty years ago,
the Chilton Gang robbed her family. The loss of their gold brought
the family to the edge of poverty and, Rose is convinced, caused
the premature death of her father.
But the gold stolen from the RM Ranch was never found. And once
Bowdrie discovers the identity of the dead man, he wonders if
the surviving members of the Chilton Gang have returned to recover
the hidden loot. Then a sniper takes a shot at Bowdrie, and suddenly,
it's personal.
Look for these, and other exciting dramatizations of Louis L'Amour
