They would find her, and he would be with her.The search party did find them. Unfortunately for Jeb Taylor the sheriff was a member of the party. When happened then is a rapid-fire story of a mysterious man, of a fiery girl who couldn't tell hate from love, of dry-gulching in the Montana hills, and of a bare-knuckle fight that plowed up both death and happiness in its wreckage.
