Plot summary
Captain Jeff Stanton, a veteran Indian fighter, is ordered to relieve a troop commander who has failed to bring back an Apache band that left its reservation. Stanton blames Indians for the resignation of his father, a career officer who trusted a group that broke its word. He has the troop abandon excess equipment so it can ride farther and faster, then lures a small war party toward an unescorted wagon holding hidden soldiers. Red Hawk, a son of Chief Victorio, is taken. Stanton negotiates with the Apaches: they will return to the reservation if white miners stay off their land. He also meets Dawn Gillis, a missionary who travels with the band and teaches at an Indian school.
