Billy the Kid arrives in Las Cuentras seeking justice against Sibo Donn for a terrible crime, only to find himself ambushed and shot down by Sibo and his hired killers—but survives. Struggling with fear and lost confidence in the wake of his near-fatal wound, Billy withdraws from the fight while the grateful villagers who once fought beside him now shelter him in shame. When Sibo Donn returns with his gang to terrorize the town and its people, Billy must reckon with what little courage remains in him and whether he can reclaim his fighting spirit before the village is destroyed.

A young man named Harold Littleton travels nearly two thousand miles from New Jersey to the rough town of Copallo with a simple mission: collect a long-overdue $15,000 debt his late father is owed from Joe Hagger. When Hagger refuses and has him thrown out, Littleton decides he's not leaving until he gets what's rightfully his—a decision that transforms the farm boy into something harder, drawing unlikely allies and forcing a reckoning on Main Street.
