Vengeance is the best medicine...
Wanted for a murder he hasn't committed, Chappel flees the goldfields of Colorado for the sanctuary of his own Arizona hills.
There, he learns from sheriff Leggy Ormond that his family has been wiped out by the hated Quincy Gang. Leggy tells him everything - except the whereabouts of the killers.
From that moment, vengeance becomes Chappell's life work, and with the implacable determination of a ruthless man, he sets about tracking down the killers. With the trail leading to Fayette Quincey, a tempestuous and cruel beauty, his thinking starts to become hazy.
Will he emerge victorious?
