When Jesse James finds himself caught in the crossfire of Turk Momsen's gang robbing a Union Pacific train, his quick draw and deadly aim turn the tables on the holdup—and earn him an unlikely offer: the local sheriff's badge.

With bullets flying and his reputation in tatters, Jesse must prove he's the genuine article before the false Jesse James escapes with the proof of his crimes.

As Villa's power swells across northern Mexico, he discovers that victory brings its own treacheries, forcing him to grapple with the costs of his ambition in ways he never anticipated.
