"Tod Thorson got his first taste of Thunder Gulch - a kill-crazy Montana boomtown - when his stagecoach was raided by a band of Colt-slinging renegades. Hours later, he found himself mixed up in a battle against Matthew Fee - outlaw boss of the gold camp. Determined to break Fee's hold on the town, Tod joined the Vigilantes. But the lynching of a few cutthroats spurred Fee's crowd to greater viciousness."
