The Stalking Moon
U.S. Army soldiers round up a group of Apache, mostly women and children. Surprisingly, they find among them a white woman and her half-Apache son. When an army scout retires to a ranch in New Mexico he takes pity on a white woman and her "half-breed" son recently rescued from Apaches and invites them to join him. He does this even knowing the child's father is a feared and murderous Apache and that sooner or later a showdown is almost inevitable. —Jeremy Perkins {J-26} The US Army scout Sam Varner finds a group of Apache while hunting down the feared and violent Salvaje with the army. The soldiers realize that most of them are women and children and among them, there is a white woman, Sarah Carver, and her half-breed son. Sam will retire and the half-breed Nick Tana, who was raised and trained by him, will replace him. Sarah begs Sam to travel with him and he accepts to escort them until the stagecoach stop. During the night, the boy flees, and Sam and Sarah look for him in the morning. There is a sandstorm, but they find the boy and look for shelter at the rocks. When they return to the post, they find everybody murdered by Salvage. Sam buries them and decides to escort the stagecoach until Silverton, where there is a train station. He learns that Sarah lied and does not have any relative alive. Sam feels pity for Sarah and the boy and invites her to cook in the ranch he has bought, and his friend Ned is taking care. She accepts the invitation and soon Sam learns that the boy is Salvaje's son. Out of the blue, his friend Nick comes to the ranch and tells that Salvaje has begun a crime spree looking for the boy and is coming to the ranch. —Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
