Black Moon rages against the white invaders of his beloved Black Hills homeland, but it's a losing effort.

But Rose faces his own struggle against land grabbers, and he must rely on his friends, including Deadwood's legendary sheriff Seth Bullock, to help him defend his family and bring hired killers to justice. Fate, however, has one more challenge for Rose — a final showdown with Black Moon, a face-off only one man will win.
