The War Between the States has ended, but not so the prejudices between the Races. Eager to leave the ruins of the South, and their collective past behind them, a group of emancipated Negroes embarked on an exodus to what they hoped would be a safe haven near the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Together, they established the community of Lincoln, California. As others joined them, they built a proper town adjacent the mountain pass used by the Postal Service to carry mail to the West Coast. Yet, even here, a thousand miles from the still blood-soaked battlefields of the Civil War, they are hounded by the agents of greedy and ruthless men seeking to deprive them of their hard-won lands - and their lives. Sheriff 'Henri' Johnson is the lone peacekeeper for the town of Lincoln - a job no one else wants, and no one else is as capable of doing. The young Sheriff has attained a level of skill with the revolver that would have made her a legend - were she not a woman, and a Negro. After being wounded in a gunfight, Sheriff Henri Johnson struggles to rebuild her confidence, and her skills, before an even more dangerous foe arrives, Hell-bent on destroying the entire town, and its people.
