After leaving a trail of terror and death in his wake, the notorious âMissouriâ Boone Jennings finally meets his match in San Francisco when US marshal Ambrose Shaw catches up to him. The story of his capture, and the marshalâs bravery, has already become legend back east by the time Pinkerton inspector Ezra Johns gets off the train from New York City to testify in the murdererâs trial.
When Ambrose is unable to give witness to the evils heâs seen, Ezra becomes their lone hope for putting Jennings in a noose. But if Ezra thinks thatâs his biggest problem, heâs got plenty to learn about lifeâand the afterlifeâin the spirited West.
Fortunately, Ambrose is there to assist, and more than happy to oblige Ezraâin the courtroom or the bedroom. He spent his life bringing justice to the Wild West, and if he has a say in it, thatâs how heâll be spending his death too.
