A Western adventure series
Starring Pete Duel as Smith, Ben Murphy as Jones
with guest stars Fernando Lamas, Diana Hyland

As Jones points out to Smith with a certain degree of accuracy, nobody but a danged fool would agree to guide a stranger into the secret hideout of the notorious Devil's Hole gang. Which only goes to prove that Smith is a danged fool-although even he might have seriously reconsidered the matter if he'd know just how warm his reception was going to be.
