When former Pinkerton Talbot Roper receives a job offer from an ailing Civil War veteran whose Medal of Honor is about to be revoked, he agrees to help. Roper sets out to track down the men who served with Howard Westover and get signed affidavits that his medal was earned. But his plan is derailed when he finds that two of his contacts are already dead. The men who served with Westover are being hunted down, and Roper's been added to the hit list.
