<p>Ryan Walker has always known what he wants to be-a cowboy like his father was before being injured in a riding accident. But when Ryan's older brother Gil becomes a member of the Mountain Patriots Association a militia group that wants to keep Wyoming free from immigrants minorities and government interference Ryan finds himself questioning things he's taken for granted all his life.

How can he stand up for what is right when he's not sure what that is?</p>
