Synopsis

Jack Bell left Elk Horn seven hundred dollars richer after a poker game against Early Philpot. What Jack didn't reckon on was Philpot being such a sore loser and sending a gang of lowlifes into the mountains after him to retrieve his money. Luckily for Jack, a gunfire-triggered avalanche stopped his pursuers with one dangerous exception. Delbert Hanks was humiliated after Jack Bell rescued him from a frozen grave and sent him running back to Elk Horn with his tail between his legs. Hanks has woven a web of lies about Bell's prowess as a gunslinger and his thirst for revenge that Early Philpot cannot possibly ignore. With a band of merciless cutthroats eager to finish Bell off, Hanks believes he'll be able to finish the job without even getting his hands dirty and Jack Bell is willing to put the lot of them to the test . . .
