After
the Civil War, Kansas was a wild territory ripe for exploitation.
German immigrant Helmut Rapp and his wife come west, claiming
land under the Homestead Act. They risk everything as they
battle the cruel elements, the Indian threat and the dangers
of the raw environment. Furthermore, Helmut has dark secrets
of his own to fight.
With the new railroad thrusting towards his land and greedy
and unscrupulous men stopping at nothing to gain advantage,
Helmut strives to preserve the life and obscurity he has worked
so hard to achieve. But mob violence, murder and revenge boil
up, ripping his world apart and forcing him into a deadly
duel that can only be resolved by the blast of gunfire.
