Publisher's Synopsis
The Bethesda Falls stage is robbed and Ruth Monroe, the stage depot owner, is being coerced into selling up by local tycoon, Zachary Smith. Daniel McAlister returns from gold prospecting to wed Virginia, the saloon's wheel of fortune operator. He hits a winning streak but is bushwhacked, his winnings stolen.
And newcomer to town, Horace Q Marcy, seems to be playing a game close to his chest, too. Virginia sees this romance with Daniel as her last chance of happiness. No matter what, she's determined to stand by her man, ducking flying bullets if need be. Daniel and Virginia side with Ruth against Smith and his hired gunslingers. Only a deadly showdown will end it, one way or another.
