Storytown regarded Marshal Shane Gabriel as the best lawman they'd ever had. Hadn't he tamed the wild miners, taken control of the streets and re-imposed law and order when all his predecessors had failed to do so? But everything changed forever the day the marshal's former lover came to town. She was followed closely by Colt champion Ash Quentin, her most recent rejected conquest who had vowed to win her back of kill her. Overnight, Storytown became a battlefield and sixgun law would rule again until either the gunfighter or the marshal were dead.
