When former hired gun, Calvin Taylor, took the job of sheriff of Oxford County, New Mexico, it was for one reason only — to catch, or kill, the notorious Arizona Kid, and pick up the fifteen hundred dollars reward the governor had secretly offered.
Blood money, some called it, and pinning on a sheriff's badge set Taylor against the woman in his life and the community in which he lived. He found himself on the trail of the infamous gang known as the Regulators, hunting down a man who'd once been his friend.
And as this trail wound deeper into the wilderness, into the hell-on-earth that was the White Sands, the pursuit became, in every sense, a journey of death.
