Chance Weston and John Hall arrive in Beaver Gulch, almost a ghost town, in the fall of 1875, both looking for work. What they find is trouble. A powerful rancher and his hired guns have run off many of the prominent citizens. The newcomers accept jobs as sheriff and preacher.
The Mason sisters, April and May, are as different inside as they are alike in appearance, and the sheriff fancies the demure April while the preacher is drawn to anything in a skirt. And when he cozies up to the rancher's young wife, all hell breaks loose.
From the jailhouse and the pulpit, they face bullies, gunslingers, lynch mobs, and a corrupt town council. Their friendly rivalry escalates into a deadly face-off with guns and gallows as probable outcomes. Both men could wind up dead, leaving Beaver Gulch a lawless, godless town.
