In Zane Grey's classic Western, Buck Duane, son of a notorious gunman, kills a man in self-defense and becomes a fugitive in the lawless Texas borderlands. Haunted by his father's outlaw legacy, Duane drifts among dangerous desperadoes while yearning for redemption and the love of Ray Longstreth, a colonel's daughter. Given a secret chance at a pardon by a Texas Ranger captain, Duane goes undercover to bring down the ruthless Cheseldine gang. Torn between violence and virtue, he battles outlaws and his own inner darkness, proving that even a marked man can fight his way back to honor.
