A king's ransom in gold had was stolen in a violent bank-raid right in the heart of San Francisco, and the President himself gave orders for Yancey Bannerman to retrieve it. That meant going up against a kill-crazy outlaw named Brad Stewart, and Stewart's own personal bodyguard, a fellow-psychopath called Catlin, who claimed to be the toughest man in Texas. With Yancey's partner, Johnny Cato, on a mission up in Canada, Yancey would have to face the outlaws alone. But that was just fine with him ... because the bank Stewart had robbed was owned by his father, C.B. And Stewart's raid had left C.B. lung-shot and facing almost certain death, while his brother, Chuck, looked certain to face the rest of his days from a wheelchair. For Bannerman the Enforcer it was just about as personal as it could get. And he wouldn't rest until he saw Stewart, Catlin and their entire cutthroat gang dead.
