In this game, the winning hand is the one that holds the gun!A cardsharp with a conscience, Frank Derringer came to the crooked town of Tribune, Kansas, looking to even a score or two. But after cheating the cheaters who’d robbed a good friend blind in a fixed game, Frank’s escape didn’t go exactly as planned – especially after he hooked up with a sharp-shooting lady named Martha Jane Canary, better known as “Calamity.” True to her moniker, Calamity Jane was soon leading Frank into a hail of gunfire that surrounded a dead man’s dying words and a fortune in stolen gems. Now, stripped of the one edge they’ve both always had – the advantage of working alone – Frank and Jane are riding hell for leather into a deadly free-for-all and a killer’s ingenious trap. And it’ll take a sharp eye, a quick gun, and a strong dose of gambler’s luck to keep them alive long enough to rake in the pot!
