When Victoria Morrison's husband of twenty-five years is gunned down by four drifters on their ranch in Laramie, she contacts her father back in Boston. He in turns puts her in touch with the head man of the Pinkerton Agency. An old friend of his. He makes the trip to Laramie to visit Victoria. "I have four men in mind," he tells her. We have been watching these men for years." "Watching them?" she asked, "are these men criminals?" "No Ma'am," he tells her. "They're bounty hunters." "Send them to me," she insists. She hires them to find and bring in or kill the men that killed her husband. All of these men earn her respect, but one also wins her heart.
