The U.S. government asks him to drive 6,000 head of sheep to a Navajo reservation—where the displaced Indians survive by weaving intricate blankets for fashionable folks back east.

But when a pack of pistol-wearing wolves comes howling for the herd, Longarm isn’t going to forgo his flock without a fight…
