Summary: What one does for love and money! The love being Francine Toutant. The money being notorious Dakota Territory outlaw Bill Riley. Thus, we find bounty hunter T. J. Ragland riding across the bleak Dakota Territory carrying the head of Bill Riley in a gunny sack, bound for Fort Leavenworth and a three-thousand-dollar bounty reward. In the sorry little town of Bend City, where he intends to catch a riverboat, Bill Riley's head is stolen. Throw in a drunken Indian, an undercover Pinkerton detective, foreign agents, and murder, and Ragland quickly discovers a lot more is happening in Bend City than its sleepy appearance suggests.
