      Aldo G Mitchum plays a proficient gunman who finds jobs as a temporary deputy in towns overcome by corruption and debauchery. It's no accident that his last job is in a town where his estranged wife and child are located. Mitchum's character faces gunslingers and moral dilemma's in this well made Western.
