In Dodge City, he ought to know better than to get mixed up in another man’s fight, but good sense doesn’t count for much when a pretty girl asks for your help. With six-guns drawn, Riley follows the beauty into a flop-house to bail her paramour, Adam Hale, out of a jam — killing a man in the process.
