In the guise of a professional gambler, he heads for a big city, St. Louis. With its rough crowds and dock gangs, the gambler can blend in with the city's criminal element. This time Jake is pitting his wits and skill against an outlaw the likes of which he has never chased before, and if fate and luck turn against him this may be the last manhunt he ever takes.Blood, guts and gun smoke abound in another classic western by master storyteller W.R. Benton.
