Although Clay Taggart had been strung up and left to rot under the burning desert sun, he wasn't about to play dead. After a desperate band of Indians rescued Taggart, he headed into the Arizona wilderness and plotted his revenge. One by one, Taggart hunted down his enemies, and with the help of the renegade Apaches, he acted as judge, jury, and executioner. But when Taggart set his sights on a corrupt marshal, he found that the long arm of the law might just have more muscle than he expected.
