Frank Hammond has been accused of murder and U. S. Deputy Marshal Matthew T. Langtry is escorting him to Sheridan, Wyoming for trial. Because he is innocent and there is no one to speak for Frank, Jessie Hammond decides to rescue her brother.

Between Jessie's attempted rescue and a gang of angry vigilantes, Frank dies. But Jessie is determined to prove his innocence. She doubts that the marshal will help her and she strikes out on her own.

Jessie has lost her parents, her only sibling and her home. She has lots of anger and gumption without a lot of sense. She acts without thinking of the consequences and this leads her into serious trouble.

Langtry is desperate to find the killer and get Jessie out of harm's way; neither task is easy. This story has lots of action; Jessie spends so much time being Wonder Woman -- she doesn't seem to trust Matt to help her. I got tired of Jessie's lack of planning and plunging into trouble without consideration.
