Aging outlaw Silje Rash and her stalwart Colt pistol have been together for decades, carving their own path through a world that wouldn't otherwise abide a woman in dungarees doing as she pleased. When arthritis drives her to retirement in civilized Reno, she struggles with her new reality, throwing in with a double amputee and his half-Chinese niece against a sadistic Sheriff looking to make a name for himself.
