Book II of the SEVEN-HAWKS-DANCING Trilogy. The Sioux are getting restless over in the Black Hills, and the white population is uneasy. The army is alert. Then two herds of government-allocated cattle intended for the Northern Cheyenne are missing. So are more than 20 young warriors sent to bring them to the people gathered on the reservation between the Rosebud and the tongue. Without the cattle, the people will starve—or maybe take by force that which is neccesary to survive. Two brothers, one Cheyenne (a Warchief named Bear-That-Walks-The-Sky) and the other white (named Jed who is also a deadly gunman called the Breed), must deal with the mystery before the Northern Plains again run red with blood. In the midst of this, Jed must settle some things, and help the woman he has chosen for his life to recover from injuries received in the tale told in Book I.

Book I of the SEVEN-HAWKS-DANCING Trilogy A man who once befriended him is dry-gulched. The woman he wants for his wife is brutally kidnapped. Jed Church, raised by the Cheyenne as Seven-Hawks-Dancing and brother to the War Chief called Bear-That-Walks-The-Sky, is also the deadly gunman the territory knows as the Breed. Jed Church, with a heart more Cheyenne than white, rides the vengeance trail, fighting to reach Molly, and to help his brother keep what remains of the Cheyenne spirit alive. Standing in the way is a shadowy plot involving cattlemen, homesteaders, the Army, and the Cheyenne. Jed struggles to make sense of it all and to reach Molly before it is too late. Seven and Bear ride the Wyoming Territory for justice, Cheyenne-style.

Seven-Hawks-Dancing, a Cheyenne Warrior whose white name is Jed Church, is riding southbound in Wyoming Territory. His destination is a ranch, the Double-W, near the town of Medicine Bow. Waiting for him there is Molly Wells, owner of the ranch, and Jed's intended bride. He plans to marry her and spend the better part of a month with her before he reports to the territorial offices to be sworn in as Deputy U.S. Marshal. Before he can reach Medicine Bow, the silence, as well as his plans, are shattered by the sound of gunfire. Jed reaches the site after the shooting has stopped, and he discovers all that's left is five Cavalry Troopers lying dead in a draw, and the bodies of seven apparent cowhands who seem to have been wiped out in an attack on the detachment. Jed and his brother, Bear-That-Walks-The-Sky, War Chief of the Cheyenne Crazy Dog Society, will have to struggle with the mystery that will end up involving Molly and the Double-W, Bear and the Cheyenne, visitors from a foreign land, and a whole passel of interested parties before the mystery is solved. And there will be a price for it all.
