The multigenerational epic follows two concurrent time periods: One, the story of young Eli McCullough after he is kidnapped and indoctrinated into a tribe of Comanches in 1849. The other, 60 years later, when we see a grown Eli struggle to maintain his family’s cattle empire during the turbulent Bandit Wars of South Texas. Based on Philipp Meyer’s acclaimed novel.

Eli McCullough must reconcile his childhood indoctrination by Comanche warriors with his adult role as a ruthless cattle baron. This sweeping saga tracks his evolution from a stolen boy into a man struggling to hold his empire together amidst the violence of the South Texas frontier.
