News travels slow sometimes on the frontier—but rumor spreads faster than fire through a hayloft. So when the Gunsmith reads a newspaper story about the death of his old friend Buckskin Frank Leslie, Clint aims to uncover the truth. He hooks up with another old saddle partner to follow a trail of rumors... a trail that leads him into a mess of trouble.

Seems Clint didn't know Buckskin Frank Leslie as well as he thought. Tracking him down is going to be tougher than he expected... especially when Clint gets caught between a newspaperman and a couple of sticks of dynamite.
