Fully healed from his wounds, Beckett sets out on a quest to find the gunfighter that threatened to kill the people he cares about most. One by one he and his bounty hunter partner track down the dangerous gunfighter's men and extract information by any means necessary. Quickly they realize their path leads back to Idaho Territory and the town of Temperance where it all began. Meanwhile, a mysterious stranger arrives in Coeur d'Alene City and boards a steamship bound for Temperance. With a Colt on his hip and a picture of Beckett in his pocket, the stranger embarks on his own journey to confront a man he hasn't seen in over a decade. When Beckett discovers his worst fears may have come true, he prepares for the last battle he may ever fight in the explosive conclusion to the epic Temperance Trilogy.

Beckett, an ex-cowboy turned mountain man, is no hero. He doesn't even carry a gun. The northern Idaho Territory gold rush has not only brought settlers and miners to his mountain, it's also brought outlaws and killers and he wants no part of it. On his bi-yearly supply trip to Temperance, Beckett witnesses a local miner horrifically gunned down by a sheriff's deputy. He comes to find that a ruthless businessman has appointed himself sheriff and is holding the town captive, acquiring their gold claims along the Coeur d'Alene river. When the sheriff's men threaten to destroy him and the people he cares about, Beckett is forced to fight back, armed only with his wits, his strength and his Bowie knife.

Embrey Denman is a desperate man. After a harrowing journey across Montana Territory with his family, he makes a hasty stop in a depraved mining town in search of protection and turns to the first and only qualified man for the job-a gunfighter called Cincinnati. Three thousand dollars and a handshake later, Embrey and his family are back on the road to Missoula led by a man who he will soon discover is one of the deadliest alive. During their first stop, Embrey's daughter-a beautiful and intelligent young woman named Lizzy-begins to admire their new gun-toting guardian and quickly realizes he could be her ticket to a new life. When she witnesses Cincinnati gun down a group of outlaws in a bloodbath, the incident doesn't diminish her desire for the gunfighter-it only intensifies it. As he travels a long and dangerous road full of roadagents and killers, Embrey can't decide if he's bought his own private savior or made a deal with the devil.

Mere hours after his confrontation with Sheriff Cain and Deputy Cincinnati, Beckett fights off yet another vicious attack with the help of a shotgun-toting friend. When word comes that another one of Cain's sons - one of the meanest killers alive - may be on his trail, Beckett agrees to partner up with his new acquaintance on his journey to Colorado. Meanwhile, Zebediah Cain stands over his father's corpse struggling to keep his rage under control. He's been told a mountain man is responsible for the death of his father, his brothers and his best friend. Zebediah decides to send his right-hand man - a gunman and tracker called Robarge - after the killer with instructions to bring him back alive. With his body battered and broken, Beckett drags himself over a thousand miles to Durango only to face off against one of the deadliest men he has ever encountered.
