The Rustler of Wind River

A powerful cattle magnate asserts control over vast grazing lands and clashes with a stubborn homesteader who refuses to yield, sparking nights of fence-cutting, cattle drives, rustling, skirmishes, and legal and extralegal measures by hired cowboys. The narrative follows mounting tension as tracking parties and lone riders trail suspects across plains and riverlands, personal loyalties and a tentative romantic connection complicate alliances, and daring raids, pursuits at dawn, and moral reckonings lead to loss, burial, and parting among survivors. Episodes alternate frontier action with scenes of ranchhouse life, patrols, and the harsh code that governs that landscape.
