Description: "Northern Texas, July, 1878: ex-cavalrymen Amos Kane and Luke Fisher end a hard, three-day ride when they reach the frontier town of Buffalo Falls, where the Farmer's Mercantile Bank is expecting an unusually large and secret cash shipment: $50, 000. Kane and Fisher arrive hoping to get taken on as drovers, but are offered the positions of marshal and deputy marshal instead. They accept, unaware that a gang of ruthless outlaws led by Everett and Jeb Stark know about the payroll. Soon after the Starks ride into town, Kane and Fisher have a run-in with one of their gang. They then discover the real reason for the outlaws' visit ...and the stage is set for violent confrontation." --Publisher comments.
