Returning to the town of Stinking Springs, Arizona, ex-mine owner Jason Hazard meets with an unexpected cold reception. Vic Olsen – an old enemy of his – is now the new mine owner and hates Hazard with a vengeance. Added to his trouble the town seems cursed: other miners are suffering; cave-ins and payroll robberies and when a foreman goes missing, Hazard is quickly put in the frame for all the troubles. He’ll need all the remaining friends he has as hell breaks loose in Stinking Springs.
