Synopsis:

Slocum takes on some cowardly braves…

There’s only one thing more vicious than the west Texas wind as it blows through Palo Duro Canyon—and that’s a band of bloodthirsty Kiowa. Answering a woman’s call for help, Slocum comes across the scene of a brutal ambush. Two men are dead, and three women have been abducted.
 
Turns out the Indians are working with a scoundrel named Scudder, who aims to turn the women into prostitutes. There’s only one man who can save the ladies from a fate worse than death—and his name is John Slocum.
