With the town marshal laid up with a broken leg, Deputy Rick Cody must
stand alone to protect New Town during a night of mayhem. At sunup Edison Dent
will stand trial for Ogden Reed's murder and although Rick suspects that Edison
is innocent, he also reckons his own sister knows more than she's prepared to
reveal.
With Rick having only one night to uncover the truth, his task is made
harder when the outlaw Hedley Beecher plots to free the prisoner while Ogden's
brother Logan vows to kill Edison and anyone who stands in his way. Within an
hour of sundown four men are dead. And so begins the longest and bloodiest night
of Rick's life...
