But when his former commander, Colonel Willis Broughton, summons him back to Fort Cameron, Kennick is offered one final chance to face the ghosts of his past.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mission is simple to describe-and almost impossible to survive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKennick must escort \u003cstrong\u003eKicking Bear\u003c\/strong\u003e, the ruthless Comanche war leader responsible for countless raids and massacres, across more than three hundred miles of the most unforgiving country in Texas. Travelling without the protection of a cavalry troop, with only a handful of horses and a bound prisoner who will stop at nothing to escape, Kennick must cross a landscape of scorching deserts, waterless badlands and hostile territory where every trail could lead to death.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe dangers ahead are greater than the relentless heat and the ever-present threat of Comanche war parties. Kicking Bear is cunning, fearless and driven by an unshakeable belief that he has been chosen to destroy the white invaders. Every mile presents a new opportunity for escape, every halt a deadly gamble. One mistake will mean death-not only for Kennick, but for anyone who crosses their path.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYet an even more personal enemy rides behind him.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGriff McBride has never forgiven Luke Kennick for the death of his brother during the ill-fated patrol that destroyed Kennick's military career.

With two ruthless companions at his side, he follows Kennick's trail into the wilderness, intent on making the former officer suffer before finally settling the score.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCaught between relentless pursuers and a fanatical prisoner, Kennick is forced into a desperate fight for survival. Every decision could prove fatal. Every encounter tests his courage, endurance and judgement.
