Plot

In the gritty, dust-laden year of 1885, Rem Anderson, a man shaped by the outlaw life, forms an unholy alliance with fellow outlaws, Matt Rankin and Ralph Farley. Together, they scheme a daring heist on the Palace City bank, hoping to secure enough loot to buy a ranch and build a quiet life with Rem's sweetheart, Janice "Jan". Yet, fate has a cruel sense of humor. When the bank heist goes awry, Rem finds himself wounded and abandoned by his comrades and the woman he loves. Left to the mercy of the relentless posse, he's captured and thrown into the confines of prison, his dreams shattered like glass. Despite his bleak circumstances, Rem remains loyal, refusing to betray Rankin and Farley. Fast forward a year later, a hardened and vengeful Rem emerges from prison, his heart aflame with a burning desire for retribution. His journey of revenge leads him to the callous gunslinger, Billy Deal, who reveals the whereabouts of his treacherous former comrades. The trail leads to a semi-deserted, decaying town where he comes face-to-face with Sheriff Morton, Deputy Lee, and his stolen horse, now in Farley's possession. In the shadowed corners of this ghost town, Rem discovers his former partners and faithless lover, Jan. But instead of immediate retribution, he opts for a more sinister game of cat-and-mouse, drawing them into his web of revenge. As the stakes rise and the tension mounts, Rem's quest for justice takes the forefront, leaving viewers on the edge of their seat, questioning: What will become of Farley, Rankin, and Jan in this tale of betrayal and vengeance?
