Produktbeschreibung
Owen Jones is one of the last Arizona Rangers; a group of lawman trained to hunt down outlaws in the wilds of Arizona Territory in the first part of the 20th century. After learning of the rape and killing of a woman and her young daughter near the border, Owen swears to bring the murderous gang to justice, despite an aging body and legislators who want to abolish the Rangers. Owen and a rookie ranger are sent to work with the rurales in Mexico to track down the gang, who are wanted by the Sonoran government for cattle rustling and robbery. There they learn about harsh Mexican frontier justice and come up against a mastermind who works in the shadows to control cattle rustling and counterfeit money schemes, using the violent outlaws for his own gain. In Mexico, Owen meets and falls in love with a beautiful, strong-willed widow who derails his uncomplicated view of life. He must confront his weaknesses in deciding on his future-one of comfort or a life outside the law.
