The granddaughter of the legendary gunslinger [[wikipedia:Doc_Holliday|Doc Holliday]] was once a sheriff content with the small-town life. This would all change when a travelling musician known simply as "[[The Troubadour]]" began a gruesome killing spree; but when she tracked down and confronted him, he managed to flee. Intending to track him down, Holliday spent six months investigating and deduced that the killer's next target was New York. She's going to kill that evil son of a bitch.
