ThunderTree

An old-fashioned Western:
Ben Evers is a drifter that never stays in one place too long, always hankering to see what's over the next horizon. His traveling companion-an eagle. He lives by two rules. Mind his own business and always treat women with respect. The first rule stands him in good stead until he meets former Texas Ranger John T. McAllen and his niece Kate Landon. The two are drawing him into their lives and Ben knows from personal experience no good ever comes from getting involved in other folks' trouble. John T. and his neighbor are caught up in a feud over land and Clary's daughter. When danger strikes, swift and hard, Ben has a decision to make. Turn his back and ride away from people he's grown to care about or break his rule of minding his own business, and stay and fight.
