A range war seems imminent in a small town in Wyoming with the arrival of more immigrant farmers encroaching on land that cattle ranchers use for grazing. The problem is exacerbated by the mysterious attacks of the 'Devil of the Plains' who supposedly caused the death of the local newspaper editor.Dissatisfied with the lack of progress on her brother's case, ex-Pinkerton agent Dallas Burke decides to use reopening her brother's newspaper as a cover while she searches for his killer...MAVERICK!!! That's what rancher Jake Silver's mind screamed the moment he clapped eyes on the newpaperman's sister--trouble with a capital T. Because of a painful past, Jake's motto is not to get involved with feelings & wars. However, his non-involvement principle is no match for Dallas, who's determined to stick her nose into everyone's business. In a time when a woman's role was of the traditional homemaker, Dallas challenges the women of the West to stick up for themselves & those they love.
