Official synopsis Publisher
It s 1872 and the Katy Railroad is hell-bent on laying the first set of tracks through Indian Territory, but things have stalled out at a little place called Ironhead Station. It s a man-a-day, end-of-the-tracks boom camp, meant to live loud and die young. The railroad has hired a new chief of police, a man named Morgan Clyde, but the gambling crowd is giving three-to-one that he ll be dead by the end of the week. He will have to out-think the smart ones, out-lie the sneaky ones, outshoot the deadly ones, and either buy himself a one-way ticket to Boot Hill or see the smoke wagon once again rolling towards Texas “
