Is Johnny McGrath guilty?
Sheriff Owen Buck has Johnny McGrath in jail, waiting to hang for killing the man who was hired to evict him from his homestead. To make matters even worse for McGrath, he's also accused of raping the judge's wife! Buck is caught between the demands of the cattlemen, who long to see McGrath hanged - and the settlers, who want him to go free. And as Buck tries to keep the peace, Apache Junction seethes with violence simmering beneath the surface, just waiting to erupt into a bloody hell. Sheriff Owen Buck is an honorable man and won't be swayed. He'll do what is right and then pick up the pieces of his town.
