Above Arizona's Mogollon Rim the Pleasant Valley war rages, and into its crucible come Garet and Laura Havelock, who dream of building a horse ranch and raising a family on Silver Creek. But, whilst Garet is away buying horses up north, Laura is attacked by a brutal outlaw who rapes her and disfigures her face. Traumatized, she takes refuge at Rancho Pilar and finds an ally and confidante in Rita Pilar. On his return, Garet vows to track down and punish the perpetrator. Fuelled by vengeance he rides to the stronghold of outlaw Gus Snyder and rancher Loren Buchard. Now he must prove his mettle with gun and fist before he can exact his revenge.
