Although Boot Hill Valley is a strange name for a town, it's also a Colorado town with a dark, brutal, and lawless past, a town that can no longer hire a marshal.
Chance McBride, one of their former lawmen, has lost his ability to uphold the law. Thinking he has nothing left to lose, McBride foolishly turns to the bottle. But despite Chance's drinking, he still hasn't lost the love of a good woman, his precious wife, Amy.
With the help of his wife and the unlikely friendship of a mysterious Arapaho, Chance reclaims his life, confronts his personal demons, and challenges the evil Ramsey brothers, who once again threaten it all.
