He also becomes a suspect in the shooting. But Emma Farraday, the victim's niece, believes in his innocence - and the two must reveal the machinations of some wealthy and powerful men to prove it. If they don't, Emma could lose the ranch and Tucker could lose his life - just when he's found a new reason to live...
