Rakeheart, Wyoming, is a town with troubles. Into its crosscurrents comes Kane, a troubleshooter sent west to learn why ex-army officer Jared Wilkins was killed. He encounters hostility at every turn. Rachel, the rancher's widow, becomes his prime suspect, and the townspeople ask him to become sheriff, even as they make it clear they are playing a deceitful game. As Kane tries to impose law and order, he struggles to plumb the depths of Rachel Wilkins, who holds tightly to her own secrets. When violence erupts, he is left with no allies except Rachel as they wage a fiery battle for the future and the soul of Rakeheart.
