It’s the dying days of the Nineteenth Century, Northern Nevada. The Postal Clerk of Progress Township, Nevada, and sometimes agent fugitive hunter for the US Marshal Service, Hollow Grim, is on trial for murder.

The entire township was gathered at the steps of the chapel as Sunday funeral service parishioners started the second verse of Amazing Grace, when Hollow Grim’s rifle shot cut through the high noon sky and killed John Butler, in front of his friends and neighbors.

The prosecution’s case is bulletproof. The judge’s gavel hovers over a guilty verdict and a sentence of execution.
