Paid just $40 a month and given a gleaming tin sheriff’s badge, a rookie lawman must confront a ruthless mob on his own. He’s reluctantly aided by a bitter former sheriff who can’t bear to see him fall, a wide‑eyed boy who dreams of earning his own tin star, and a seasoned bounty hunter who teaches the young officer the true weight of the badge.
