There are many shades to law in the West, and as four men are about to learn, truth isn't always black and white. For freed slave Honey Boutrille, justice is a word that no longer bears any weight. After he saves the life of a prostitute by shooting her white, would-be-killer, the price put on Honey's head sends him on the run. As he narrowly escapes scrape after dangerous scrape, he learns to keep one eye in front of him and one eye on his back.
