Sunrise Over the Jumanes - Dave P Fisher - Bog

Ben Hawkins and Gaspar Cruz join forces to overthrow the Loyola Hacienda. As their plans take shape, Ben learns of the Jumanes Valley, the gold mines, and of Ace's and Kip's possession of them. Determined to kill Ace and Kip and have the valley, Ben weaves an intricate scheme for wealth and revenge. As the men are moving Nacio's cattle from the valley to the hacienda, Cruz and Hawkins take advantage of Nacio's absence and strike the hacienda with a band of mercenaries. Upon returning, Nacio finds his home in the hands of Cruz, and his mother and sisters gone. Retaking the house, the men find the girls have been abducted, and set off to rescue them. Later in Santa Fe, Teague discovers Ben Hawkins' plot to murder Ace and Kip. As the two partners drive a herd of cattle to Santa Fe, unaware of the ambush set for them, their friends converge to back them. The plan goes awry when Ace and Kip arrive a day early, and the shooting begins before the others can get to them.
