Red Hanson, the iron-fisted owner of the Double Anchor, held Mapson City in his uncompromising grasp. He called the tune and no one complained - and lived - because the law was in his pocket. The business model was simple, brutal and effective: together with a double-dealing Land Agent, Hanson sold land to settlers looking for good graze, then later his killer crew prodded and pushed until the settlers were glad to sell back at give-away prices.
Nick and Letty Randall bought a parcel of Hanson's land to breed horses. They received the same treatment as all the others, but this time Hanson had bucked the might of the powerful Randall-Houston combine and a letter was despatched to the combine's headquarters at Butte, Montana.
When the overdressed dude stepped off the train at Mapson, looking for range, he seemed easy meat to Hanson. His naivety and incompetence gave Mapson some laughs but many of those laughs ended up on the other side of people's faces when it became clear that the dude was every inch a man, and furthermore a man to be reckoned with. Then the dude fell for Hanson's beautiful daughter.
It wasn't long before the range echoed to the thunder of six-guns and the long shadow of Nemesis spread far.
