Someone wants Stringer dead almost as bad as the local females want him alive. Stringer doesn't know why so much trouble is suddenly finding him, but he suspects it must be might ugly for the town to welcome a hometown boy with double dealing and easy death.

Even so, when Stringer decides to ride along, it has less to do with an exclusive than the gun pointed at his back.
