Spoilers ahead

In this Arizona-set tale that follows the events of Gunsmoke: The Last Apache, the story unfolds in the latter half of the Pleasant Valley War (1882–1892), a brutal feud that pits the Tewksbury and Graham clans against a backdrop of vigilante ranchers, cowboys, sheepmen, gunmen, lawmen, and innocent civilians whose lives intertwine and collide over a decade.

Matt Dillon is a cattle rancher in the Dragoon Mountains northeast of Tombstone, living with his daughter Beth Dillon. Beth’s mother, known as Mike, has just died, a backstory touched on in the preceding saga of Matt’s Love Story. After the funeral, a brutal confrontation with Tommy Graham leaves Matt beaten, and Tommy retaliates by murdering Charlie Tewksbury and rustling Matt’s cattle for revenge.
