Nine dead men

the long version

Ten years after his life is saved, Jason drifts into Inspiration. He believes fate has given him an opportunity to repay the debt when he hears of the leader of an outlaw gang, Adam One-ear. But his determination to meet Adam is complicated by the intervention of a sheriff who wants to kill the outlaw, a young man seeking revenge for an old injustice, and the abduction of the rancher's daughter. When Jason, the sheriff and Adam meet for the final time, nine men have already died.
