When young Emil Garrett heads west in search of a new work opportunity, he lands a position that suits him perfectly, hiring on as a shotgun messenger with a small stagecoach operation in central Kansas. But Garrett, a hired gun with a growing reputation, does the job his own way, using an approach many view as unconventional.

The company Garrett works for, Walker & Creed, has a competitor in the region: Stavin Brothers Stage Lines. Unfortunately, Stavin Brothers' owner, Max Stavin, doesn't play by the regular rules of business. Rather than compete fairly, Stavin seeks to gain the upper hand through shady and violent means. Stavin's ultimate goal is to bankrupt Walker & Creed -- a move that would give Stavin Brothers a monopoly in the region.

If Garrett is going to succeed in his new role, he'll have to battle Stavin's minions while keeping his cargo and his passengers safe. He'll also need to protect the Walker family... especially Allie Walker, a bright, vivacious young woman Garrett hopes to get to know better.

Will Emil Garrett be able to keep everyone safe, despite his youthful age, his lack of experience in the industry, and his unconventional techniques? Or will Max Stavin and his chief enforcer, Ike McGrath, beat him in a game that was rigged long before Garrett ever signed up for the job?
