Griff Buckley: the tall, implacable Texan, who reluctantly provides the driving force to keep the fugitives pushing on in their quest for freedom. Joaquin Valdez: young aristocrat of the Mexican hierarchy, has never before fired on another human being - but he learns fast. Armida and Marita: his twin cousins, unwilling fugitives from one of the most notorious gangs of cutthroats ever spawned, Ben Callendar's raiders. Becky Gage: daughter of a well-to-do Tucson horse rancher, drawn into the race for life when the train she is riding is attacked by Pancho Villa's rebels. These are the gallant guns, a hard-bitten drifter, a young scion of Mexican high society, his two cousins, and a young ranch girl. All they have to do is fight their way through Callendar's outlaws, Villa's raiders, and make their way safely through some of the most rugged territory in Sonora, including the deadly Sonora Desert. They'll make it. Or die trying!
