Description: Convinced that Blackjack Chancer is behind the death of his youngest brother, Lukus Rheingold steals the Saturday night takings from the gambler's Wasteland Eldorado. Led by Marshal Jed Crane, the Wasteland posse is outwitted by Lukus's surviving brother, Kris. The Rheingold brothers head for their home at Nathan's Ford, where they are followed by a mysterious woman calling herself Lil Lavender, and later by Chancer and his hired gun, Fallon. All three have their own reasons for hunting Lukus Rheingold, and the hunt leads to a final bloody climax in the Rheingold family cemetery.
