A dark Western mystery where a lynch mob's act of frontier justice becomes the catalyst for a series of retaliatory murders, building paranoia and moral reckoning.

After a card shark is caught cheating, he is taken out and lynched by the drunkards he was playing against. Soon afterwards, the men who were in the lynch mob start being murdered, one after another; all by hanging.
