SECRETS, LOVE, AND GUNFIGHTS COLLIDE IN THE OLD WEST.
Smith is just a barroom piano player in Casper, Wyoming, with a secret-the kind of secret that gets men killed.
When young Eliza Whitlock arrives in town, she quickly falls in love with Smith. But an ambitious man working for her father, a stagecoach tycoon, has other plans for Eliza-and for the town of Casper. His scheme is simple: destroy the local stage line, take control of the town, and force Eliza into a marriage, earning her father's approval in the process.
As bullets fly and the townsmen take sides in the fight for the lucrative stage route in and out of Casper, Smith digs his heels in to help the town. Too bad a gunslick discovers his secret in the process and decides to give the piano man a one-way ticket to hell.
