☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeWild Bill Hickok learns of gold and silver deposits in Death Valley and sets out to investigate. Marshal O'Gila River orders Hickok to take a fat deputy and leave town, but Hickok and a man named Jingles Idler decide to explore Death Valley themselves for a few days. They discover that strangers have been around the area for months taking mineral samples, prompting Hickok to investigate further to uncover who is behind the mining operation.
When the massive outlaw Len Everts—the "Dakota Giant"—robs a bank and flees across state lines, he figures he's left the law behind for good. But Marshal Bat Masterson has other ideas, tracking the six-foot-six brute to a distant town where Everts thinks his badge means nothing. What starts as a showdown between lawman and criminal becomes something far more personal when Masterson and Everts agree to settle their score the old-fashioned way.
When a smooth-talking stranger named Harry Lester arrives in the drought-stricken Gila River country with pockets full of gold and an eagerness to buy up struggling ranches, Wild Bill Hickok and Jingles grow suspicious of his true motives. As Lester's schemes unfold and the townspeople turn against the marshal, Wild Bill must uncover what's really driving the so-called benefactor to snap up the land before it's too late.
