Publisher's Synopsis
Troy Clayton's father had been dry-gulched, so Troy returned to Bender County after seven years away as a gunslinger. He hoped to remain unrecognized, but the mystery men who had framed him with the robbery that had sent him to prison for a year were still in control. Worse still, they had used his absence to pin a murder charge on him. Gradually, Troy began to unravel the mystery but, surrounded by hot lead, nothing could prepare him for the shocking surprise that lay in store.
