In Charles King's novel, 'Foes in Ambush', Major Overton, the custodian and disbursar of government greenbacks, finds himself stranded in Arizona with no mules for his ambulance, and with the only hope of survival being a day's march away. As the sun sets and night approaches, Overton is forced to confront his own helplessness and the dangers that lurk in the shadows. With the Apaches on the prowl and the possibility of treachery from within, Overton must rely on his own wit and the assistance of a rag-tag group of characters to make it through the night alive.
