Description: Ed Wright earned his reputation as a capable and principled man from years of driving cattle - and from wearing a ranger's badge. Now the Texan wants nothing more than to drown his memories in bottle after bottle of whiskey.
Unita Nance inherited the Bar U Ranch after her husband's death. She needs Ed to drive her stock from Texas to Newton, Kansas, and she won't take no for an answer. 
Pulled against his will out of his inebriated retirement,  Ed discovers that there are those who don't want him riding herd any more than he does - and they will stop at nothing to keep him off the trail.
