And anyone who tries to mess with his dream is in for some serious Highland justice . . .The cattle town of Chugwater may not look like much to outsiders.

Young railroad developer Jacob Freemantle wants to run a rail line through Chugwater, making it easier to transport cattle. Everyone is on board with the plan-at first.

Things only get worse when Freemantle's hired guns show up-and the violence really begins . . .But Duff's got a plan of his own. With a little help from some well-armed friends, he's going to flush this phony out of Chugwater-and run his hired killers out of town on a rail . "-- Provided by publisher.
