Instead, he is fighting for his life after his half-brother puts a price on his head. His vengeance turns to a desire to save Dogtown and aids inhabitants from disaster-something that will destroy the town.
A mysterious boss is trying to take control of the northern end of Mitchell Valley and has enlisted the help of the town's marshal and a leading merchant. Killings, barn burning, rustlings are unexplained as the small ranchers are driven away from their land, one way or the other.
Only after he finds the reason; and who the mysterious boss is, does he have a chance, risking his own life, to solve the problem.
