Bones of buffalo, horses and men mark the Kansas prairie around Ascalon, a raw town at the end of the cattle trail. A meat hunter living on the edge of the town is drawn into its violence when the riders of the Chisholm Trail arrive, and as Ascalon wakes up to the need for law, he finds himself the protector of a young woman who watches from her window.
