United States Marshal Boone Crowe of Wyoming Territory seems no closer to a hopeful retirement when he stumbles upon the ghastly scene of a massacred family. Saddled with a prisoner he doesn't want, and an orphaned girl who has survived the carnage, he must turn his trail in pursuit of those responsible. A wandering family of cutthroats, drifting up from the south, has laid waste to all in their path. Fueled by whisky and a lust for cruelty, the deadly Mohegan clan scatter like ripples on the water, leaving Boone Crowe too many trails to follow. Forced to enlist the aid of his prisoner-horse-trader and sharpshooter, Tugs Bigelow-they head out to track down the killers. Complicating matters is a young, rash Texas Ranger, on his own killing mission, out to avenge the murder of his father. Peppered with an array of hard-bitten characters, Showdown in the Bear Grass pits the sturdy lawman in a race against time. Carrying justice in his Colt and Henry rifle, the aging marshal, steered by his own rage, sets out to spare the Wyoming range from being washed in more blood.

It is the madness of men that draws both Marshal Boone Crowe and Deputy Rud Lacrosse onto the separate trails of two killers. A vicious bounty hunter has seized an innocent man, and it is Crowe who is in a desperate chase across Wyoming to set the captive free before harm comes to him. But a wintery blizzard buries his hopes under a barren landscape of snow, images of war, and the haunting faces of despairing women. Lacrosse, tracking a wounded murderer, finds himself in a deeper battle within himself, a struggle against sudden violence, and the truth of who he really is, all the while bridled with a confused passion for a beautiful but mysterious girl. Track of the Wolf pits Crowe against Gaylord Wolfson, a man wrestling with demons of his own and using the Wyoming Territory as his punishing ground. In the midst of a devastating winter storm, the marshal is drawn closer to the world of Indian lore and to the strength of its power and helped in his survival by the miracle of a ghost horse.

Boone Crowe's passion for revenge carries him outside of the law in a quest to track down the killers of his old army friend, Sergeant Lancelot Tunneson. Set on the trail of army deserters, Crowe enlists the aid of a young Cheyenne girl, Iron Hand.Crowe knows only the names of the killers, but Iron Hand witnessed the savage murders of her last remaining relatives. Their faces are burned into her memory.Together Boone Crowe and Iron Hand ride hell-bent in pursuit of the killers through the open country of Wyoming with blood-red vengeance on their minds. But vengeance is a double-edged sword, and even the victors must pay a price.
