In the title story, "Red Fire,” Paul Torridon, called White Thunder by the Cheyenne Indians, and his girlfriend, Nancy Brett, are being held prisoner by the Cheyenne because they believe he can cure illness and bring rain. While Roger Lincoln, a frontiersman who has known Torridon since the early days of his feud with the Brett clan, devises a plan for their escape, Torridon’s captors take every precaution they can to keep him imprisoned, even if it means killing him rather than losing him.

PattenGeneral George Armstrong Custer was determined to find one or the other in the valley of the Little Big Horn-and so he led 225 men of the 7th Cavalry into one of the bloodiest massacres in American history.

Told through the eyes of a hard-bitten civilian scout, this action-packed novel traces the bitter, maniacal hatred the Sioux felt for Custer, examines the conflict of personal ties in the general's own ranks, and describes the desperate struggle of the survivors of that fateful battle.
