A former deputy and a strong-willed widow determine to stop a ruthless town boss.

RomanceWestern

The only business in the Wild West town of Jericho that corrupt sheriff Alex Flood doesn't control behind the scenes is the stagecoach owned by tough-willed widow Molly Lang and her right-hand man, Hickman. Former marshal Dolan, recently hired by Lang and Hickman as a driver, wants to stay out of the mess, but when he sees Flood's henchman Yarbrough assault Lang, he steps up to fight the corruption.

VIBE

A dusty, sun-baked Western where simmering tensions and a fight for survival boil over. It feels like a classic tale of good versus evil, with a touch of hard-won romance against a backdrop of corruption.
