Description
When Frank Bratton finished doing time for bank robbery, he decided to make a living with a deck of cards rather than a gun. But a cheating gambler made him reach for his gun again, and now a U.S. Marshal wants him for murder. Bratton's beautiful ex-girlfriend, Jenny McCall, defends his innocence, but Bratton knows that she doesn't belong in the middle of a mountain showdown where one wrong move will leave him dead from either an outlaw's bullet or a hinging judge's rope.Members
