Dick is a skilled scout and tracker, and he is hired by a group of ranchers to track down a band of rustlers who have been stealing their cattle.
Dick's journey takes him into the Pecos Mountains, a rugged and dangerous land where the law is weak and danger lurks around every corner. Dick and his companions must face many challenges along the way, including wild animals, hostile Native Americans, and the rustlers themselves.
Despite the dangers he faces, Dick never gives up. He is determined to bring the rustlers to justice and to protect the ranchers who have hired him. With his courage, wit, and wilderness skills, Dick is able to overcome all obstacles and complete his mission.
