Three men ride into the town of Glory and by the look of them, they are not coming to enjoy themselves. After a brief meeting with the local law enforcement, the sheriff lies gunned down.

Meanwhile, things are not going too well for Detective Simms. Having found love, only to have it cruelly snatched away from him, his only way of facing the loss is to seek solace from the bottom of a bottle. But soon his skills are called upon again, as he hears of a telegram sent from Glory; a cry for help.

Promises will be broken.

People will die.

And in the end, Simms will have to use all his guile and experience to survive.
