The reins of Satan are harnessed to the sins of violence. Civil War veteran Gabriel McDermott has spent the last thirty years as an enforcer for anyone who could pay. But times have changed. It is now 1897 and the Old West is fading. His talents are no longer in demand and this hard man is now seen as a relic from long ago. In a desire to escape his past and settle down, he turns-in his young travelling companion for a $1500 reward. However, when his partner is hanged without a trial, the execution awakes Gabe's lost conscience. Memories from a violent past return to haunt and his nerve fails - just when Satan decides to call.
