Ambrose Warlow had taken over the town. Now he figured to take over the entire territory!
He might just do it, too, with gunfighters like Ru Meiklen and Ed Kingsley on his payroll.
The town needed someone faster to fight their battle. But more than that, an owlhoot named Cash Avener needed a fast gun to take out the competition so that he could take over himself ... and when Blake Durant fell right into his lap, the stage was set for a showdown.
Railroaded into taking part in a massacre he wanted no part of, Blake could only bide his time until the chance came to escape his captor and settle the account once and for all. But what chance did one man stand against an army of killers? And how far could he trust the townsfolk to back him?
