The story

What Is New Frontier About?

The premise of New Frontier without spoilers.

The Three Mesquiteers—three frontier friends—lead a daring six‑gun adventure. They persuade a band of settlers to trade their current homestead for a parcel that, unknown to the heroes, is worthless. Before they can alert the ranchers, the Mesquiteers are captured, setting the stage for a bold rescue.
