When a wealthy rancher mistakes K. John Landis and a cantankerous ex-saloon girl for an honorable couple and offers them the opportunity to make some much-needed money, the pair jump at the chance.
Now, in charge of the rancher's flighty daughter and playing the role of doting husband, Landis is dragged down into the violent underworld of Crossroads. He had feared leaving town without a nickel in his jeans, now he fears he might never leave again.
