After a wagon train massacre, a single child is left behind: a one-year-old boy with a note tucked into his waistband: “This is my son, Rory Bailey." Raised by a Kansas farm couple as Rory Ward, he grows up never knowing the family name that runs in his blood. As the Civil War tears the nation apart, Rory serves in the Union Army and learns the harsh lessons of a divided land.
Returning home with three loyal friends, he finds a country overrun by outlaws. Now, he must reclaim what was taken from him—with his courage, his friends, and the Bailey blood he never knew he had.
