When Dalton holed up in Yellow Creek he tried to put his past behind him. But for a wanted man there can be no peace and he soon finds himself as wealthy Raphael Huffman's hired gun. Now, with a carpetbag bulging with money to guard in a town bristling with gunslingers, it isn't long before somebody risks Dalton's ever-ready gun.
But Dalton didn't expect the money to be stolen from right under his nose and, even worse, for the prime suspect to be his good friend Ryan Foxglove. Despite the numerous killers standing in his way, Dalton must track down the missing money to prove Ryan's innocence – and stay out of jail.
