And when the members of General "Ole Devil" Hardin's floating outfit are joined in Arizona by a lady named Calamity, the land grabbers, bushwackers, and bank robbers have a wildcat by the tail.

In every democracy the laws for the protection of the innocent allows loopholes through which the guilty can slip...The Governor of Texas decided that only unconventional methods could cope with the malefactors who slipped through the meshes of the law and so was formed a select group of Texas Rangers. Picked for their courage, honesty and devotion to justice, they were known as Company Z...With one exception, every man in Company Z had been a member of the Texas Rangers for several years. Alvin Fog was that man. He had inherited the muscles, skill at gun-handling and bare-handed fighting of his grandfather, the legendary Rio Hondo gun wizard, Dusty Fog. But his fellows in Company Z were not convinced he had the skill needed for their unconventional duties. It was up to him to prove he was worthy of his place in Company Z. Only he alone could truly become ... Alvin Fog, Texas Ranger!

In 1873 Sebastian Lerdo de Tejada became President of Mexico. In the same year the Colt factory at Hartford, Connecticut, produced a new revolver. They called it the Model P and gave no thought to a better name. It became the best and most reliable fighting handgun of its age, rugged, powerful and hard hitting. Dusty Fog bought a matched brace of the new Colts ... Down in Mexico there was trouble, and an old friend of the Ysabel Kid disappeared, believed murdered by the revolutionaries. That brought Dusty Fog, Mark Counter, the Ysabel Kid and Waco into Mexico. When they returned, those new Colt guns bore a name—men called them the Peacemakers....

The forces of greed aren’t going to let go of Spanish Grant County without a final fight, and an army of hired gunslingers take on a bantam-fighter-turned-sheriff named Fog, the fists of a blond giant Mark Counter, the honed steel of a silent killer, the Ysabel Kid. And what the outlaws can’t win with Colts and Winchesters they’ll try another way earning the ire of a shootist named Calamity Jane!

The Palo Duro was bad country: dry as the rattlesnakes that owned it, mean as the Comanches who ruled it, wild as the outlaw town of Hell that was its capital. Dusty Fog had ridden in and shot his way back out again. But had left behind men and women at the mercy of the Kweharehnuh Comanches. Bad men, who had committed almost every kind of crime, and women who were not much better, it is true. That did not stop Dusty feeling concerned for their safety. So the Rio Hondo gun wizard decided that he must go back to Hell. Despite all the dangers which doing so entailed, the Ysabel Kid and Waco insisted upon accompanying him. The mysterious man called Break O'Day rode with them—but he intended to be the only one to come out of Hell alive.

Outlaw Rapido Clint strode into the Texas "chicken ranch" with women on his mind and the Texas Rangers on his trail.

Holed up at a posh hacienda run by an American crime czar, they would be ready for a standoff with the Rangers...and it had to end in an orgy of bullets and blood.

Belle, Calamity and the Kid made a good team, but they knew they would need all their fighting skills when the showdown came. For they faced leLoup-Garou and the Jan-Dark, the legendary warrior maid with the warlance who, it had long been promised, would come to rally all the Indian nations and drive the white man from Canada.
