Deputies of the town’s sheriff’s department are demanding what amounts to be no less than protection money from many of the small business owners, in the guise of bogus undocumented tax increases. One of the storekeepers has approached Kate and given her details of the unlawful scam, that is being operated by those that are supposed to protect and serve the community, not to intimidate and profit by it.
Logan becomes involved, only to be surprised when an unknown perpetrator takes the law into his or her own hands and guns down one of the crooked deputies.
The town is being run by a corrupt mayor, and more deputies on a vigilante’s list are murdered as the state police and also detectives from Denver investigate the case.
