A delicate frontier truce is pushed to the breaking point when corrupt officials threaten the peace.
Capt. Hunt and the honorable Chief Acoma strive to maintain a fragile harmony across the arid plains, but a prejudiced judge and a stubborn colonel shatter their hard-won treaty. Forced to escort a group of stranded civilians through a treacherous landscape, Hunt faces a dramatic, high-altitude showdown at an ancient cliff dwelling to restore order.
