Legendary gunfighter Dolf Morgette, returning from Alaska to Idaho for his son's wedding, learns he may be coming home for a funeral instead. Junior Morgette, marshall of Pinebluff, has been dry-gulched and lies near death. On his worried journey home Dolf's friends saddle him with enough law-keeping chores for ten men: to stop rustling in the Quarter Lien, track down the thieves stealing Wells Fargo gold, and bring some peace back to rowdy Pinebluff.
