Harry Maddox arrives in a small Texas town and gets a job at a car dealership. Life in the town is boring, there are few men, and two women immediately fall in love with the handsome newcomer: the dealership owner’s wife and the bookkeeper. Our hero has settled in town with a very specific goal in mind—to rob the local bank. But as a result, he himself becomes a pawn in the hands of the boss’s wife, a cold-blooded and calculating mistress.
