From the cover: In the early days of the Texas panhandle, starting a new life is hard - but keeping it is even harder.

Espy Norwood is a troubleshooter who's got troubles of his own - and more troubles find him when he lands a job on a ranch on the Texas plains. Bitter landowners plot against him, determined cattle thieves sneak right under his nose, and his own son refuses to trust or even know him. Can he catch the thieves, save the ranch, and win his son's love?
