Bury, Idaho was the kind of place that tested mens' resolve. It was wild and unruly and so were its inhabitants: Stratton, Potter, and Richards, three outlaw gunslingers trying to make a place for themselves. A no man's land like Bury seemed the appropriate home for these desperados until Smoke Jensen came to town. Smoke came to this barren frontier with an ax to grind and the desire to see these three miscreants settle down permanately-six feet down. They had murdered his wife and son years ago and a burning vengeance was the only thing keeping Smoke warm in the cold western wilderness. Now that Smoke had finally found what he was looking for in Bury, will it be enough to satisfy his demons or will his demons bury him?
