When Matt Bartlett rode into Sun Dog, the last thing he was lookin' for was a new mess of trouble. Matter of fact, he was aiming to get himself a small spread and set to forgetting the brutal Lincoln County fracas he'd finally gotten away from. But, a stranger in Sun Dog didn't stand much chance of keeping peaceably to himself. Not with a pair of trigger-happy gunmen running the town, using their bullets to protect a vicious rustling racket. Especially when they had been looking for a newcomer to take the blame for it all.

His partner was death-branded by six bullets from a ghost gun. It was Curt Traynor's birthday, and Curt was a young man who liked to celebrate the occasion with a drink and a friendly brawl. Curt had been working like a dog and his partner in the Tomahawk ranch, Frank Ballard, felt Curt had earned the right to blow off a little steam. What worried Ballard was Del Hudspeth, who owned the Crazy K. Hudspeth wanted the Tomahawk and recently had been hiring men who seemed to have more experience with six-shooters than herding cows.

Son against father for rangeland justice. What son could draw against his own father? That's the question Neil Wallace had to ask himself. Neil admired his father, King Wallace, for building up the biggest ranch in the territory and defending it with guns blazing against rustlers and robbers.

But the man Lyman was "teaching a lesson" to was no fiddlefoot drifter. He may have looked like one, but he was Jim Dixon, a fast shooting, fast thinking freighter who had come to town alone to scope out its business possibilities. But Dixon's men and wagons weren't far behind and together they made a hard-fighting partnership no man or men could stand against. Lyman had given Dixon a reason to stay, and so had his meeting with Ellen Carter a woman of good breeding and exceptional strength, married to one of the slimiest tinhorn gamblers in the West.
