Kelly Sisson wasn't called Killer for nothing. Longarm had tusseled with the outlaw a few years back, and once was plenty. But now Sisson's escaped from the Denver penitentiary . . . and was recaptured way up in Washington Territory, in a town called Moses. And it's up to Longarm to bring him back . . . for hanging. Longarm figures that a trip with Killer Sisson will be nothing but trouble. But trouble's already waiting in Moses - because the sheriff's dead, the deputy's been shot and Sisson's in cahoots with the most powerful man in the territory. And now Longarm's risking his hide on a long "noose" chase. . .
