The dark-eyed lady wants Jake Staggs to collect the bounties on twenty members of an outlaw band. She might be crazy, but the only other option for this wanted man is the hangman's noose. He can easily ride into the rustlers' camp at Smuggler's Gulch - he went there once before. But will Kit Blanchard allow him to leave...alive? Now he must try again - for the sake of a madwoman. Meanwhile, should Jake fail, Marshal Trouffant waits to hang him.
