"Tracking down a crazy Confederate scheme to capture Colorado was the kind of job Union Captain Tom Baird was ready for. But he hadn't reckoned on a hidden cache of ammunition big enough to equip a small army--or the surprising partnership of a beautiful brunette Federal agent. When Baird is captured by three men, the remainder of a First Colorado Cavalry scouting patrol, it takes a while for each to earn the other's trust. He needs their help to complete his mission, but they are intent on finding the man who led their patrol into an ambush. By working together, the four hope they can accomplish their goals when the odds appear to be overwhelmingly stacked against them"--,Provided by publisher.
