The fugitives were to meet in American River once they had shaken off the posses. But something went wrong and initially only Fletcher Cody made it back. However, this proved to be an unexpected advantage when, on arrival, Cody the reluctant hero foiled a robbery and murder attempt and earned himself a lawman's badge. As it turned out, things couldn't have worked better for the remaining outlaws and what they had in mind for the army payroll held at the bank. But, almost too late, they realized others had earmarked the money for themselves. Assassins, stampedes, gunfights and outright murder would decide the outcome.
