Phoebe Titus, the first female pioneer settling in the area, has the entrepreneurial fervor to develop the land. She successfully starts a railroad route from Tuscon to Fort Yuma. Aside from business, Phoebe also finds time for pleasure -- in the form of a romance with Muncie, a wandering cowboy. Then Muncie leaves for California, while Phoebe focuses on her bottom line. Her competitors, however, are not content to let Phoebe drive them out of town. They set out to destroy her growing livelihood: they arrange the theft of her nest egg and bribe Indians to terrorize her wagon trains. On his way back east, Muncie agrees to help Phoebe fight her adversaries on their own cutthroat terms. [More]
