About this item

In 1881 Texas, Marshal Frank Mabry is faced with the most puzzling and dangerous assignment of his long career. The forty-two-year-old former Texas Ranger meets with representatives of the War Department and is told of a train robbery that occurred near Denver, Colorado, eight months earlier. $500,000 in government greenbacks and gold coins had been stolen, and two soldiers brutally murdered. All attempts by army and railway detectives to find the killers and recover the stolen money ended in failure. Then an army captain who had doggedly searched for the killers was found dead hundreds of miles from Denver, in a small Texas cow town. Had the captain unearthed a critical piece of information about the robbery but was killed before he could pass it along? The Secretary of War s top advisor, Hiram McDougal, wants answers.
