Jake Hannibal grew up back east and came of age just as the war between the states began. He quickly volunteered for service in the union army and soon found himself facing the confederate army at Fredricksburg, VA. Receiving a wound that would make him unfit for further service he decided to head west, to get as far away from the war torn east as possible. His one desire was to start his own cattle ranch, but Jake was in for a rude awakening. What he found were men who were willing to do anything, even murder to get a hold of what others had. Men who held nothing sacred, even life itself. Jake hires on to punch cattle for Tom Hicks, who teaches him what to expect in this rugged land. After leaving the Rocking H behind he strikes out on his own trying to find a place to begin building his dream. What follows is not what Jake had expected. He soon comes into contact with the most ruthless of all men. Men who carried six guns and knew how to handle them, men who would stop at nothing to get what he had struggled to build. Tom had tried to warn young Jake Hannibal and prepare him for life in this untamed land, but nothing Tom warned him about could compare to what Jake was about to experience. Death, violence, and greed soon reared it's ugly head. If he wanted to survive he had to become as hardened as they.
