daniel dillon is a former pioneer who, thanks to his accumulated wealth, has become the king of a town called kingdom come, where he has everything that matters: from the bank to the mine, to the dating house. his fortunes have also allowed him to win the heart of the beautiful brothel owner. but fate seems to turn its back on him when three foreigners arrive in the village: an emissary from the railway company that has to decide whether to pass the line for the town and two women who seem to have something to claim and revamp in the magnate's past.
