Killers Never Sleep

Wyoming Territory has spent a long stretch under the thumb of Ben Washington and his band of killers, who rustle cattle, rob stagecoaches and trains, and gun down settlers. Buck Trammel, sheriff of Laramie and a former Pinkerton operative, learns that the gang has been preying on an innocent family. He and his deputy ride out and bring Washington in, with guns drawn.

News of the capture travels quickly, and the gambler Adam Hagen starts taking bets on the outlaw's fate, wagering on where and when his men will try to break him free. The money piles up faster than he expects, and his greed pushes him to open the betting to the whole country.

As the easy cash draws attention, the LeBlanc Brothers, a gang out of New Orleans, drift into town passing themselves off as ranchers. The LeBlancs always come away with something, and before long they join forces with Washington's men.

Trammel now faces a dangerous, high-stakes game in which any move could cost his deputy his life and put the future of justice in Laramie at risk.
