John Dancer was a drifter. He came upon a young woman weeping after raiders had lynched her husband and taken everything from their ranch. Dancer was compelled to help Cassie Blythe, but he was up against a web of deceit and murder on the range. Then the raiders returned with guns blazing and John was shot to pieces. But Dancer was determined to return to face the raiders--and vowed to even the score as a dark angel riding.
