Hostile Comanche warriors tear three young women away from their families. The three young women are forcibly taken back to a Comanche village located inside Blanco Canyon. A small company of Texas Rangers are dispatched to rescue the three young women from the Comanches. Can these Texas Rangers rescue the three young women and bring them safely back to their families?

Cooper McCaw, a former cavalry officer who was stripped of his rank and branded a coward, was summoned to Fort Concho by its commanding officer.
