When gold is discovered near the little town of No-Name, Colorado, the citizens are overjoyed at their good fortune . . . until trouble gallops down Maine Street on a horse straight out of Hell. For golds closest companions are greed and murder, and every two-bit gunslick from the Atlantic to the Rockies is beating a path to the gold strikewhich is practically on the doorstep of Smoke Jensen. Theyre looking to get rich quick . . . and never mind how it's done.

But this legendary mountain man never learned how to back away from a good fightand this one promises to be a whopper.
