In southeastern Colorado in 1880, a range rider investigating a murder becomes entangled with two identical sisters and a network of divided loyalties. The resemblance between the women complicates an already uncertain case, because appearances can be mistaken and testimony may depend on who was actually seen at a crucial moment.

The mystery unfolds within cattle country where personal honour, ranch interests and old grudges overlap. Solving the killing requires more than identifying a gunman: the rider must understand the relationships that made the crime possible and decide whom he can trust when identity itself has become part of the deception.
