She teaches at a one-room schoolhouse while Scar fulfills his special assignment duties for Governor Routt.

Due to Scar’s success, the Governor appoints him to his cabinet as Director of Indian Affairs. While in this political position, gold and silver are discovered on Indian land, which causes an invasion of prospectors. This creates a severe conflict between the Indians and white men, even to the point of Indian uprisings. Scar feels the Indians have a right to be upset because the land has been given exclusively to the natives under US treaties. To settle the matter, officials rescind the deals in place with the Indians and develop a plan to move all Indians to reservations, with no consideration for their customs, heritage, hunting grounds, and sacred territorial migrations, which concerns Scar deeply. He sees it as a terrible injustice with a potential for bloodshed on both sides. After being kidnapped and severely beaten by pro-Indian-reservation operatives, Scar has high-level meetings in Denver with both Governor Routt and President Hayes on behalf of the Indians’ plight. Many changes are in the wind for the Indian nations, and also for Scar, as the West advances in step with the rest of the country on the verge of the Industrial Revolution. Scar and the Double D Ranch will keep you in suspense with Scar’s adventures and life lessons interspersed in another fantastic tale about A Man Called Scar
