Stupid is the one who dares to treat an orc of ass-green, especially in New Mexico, it is the guarantee to eat a bullet! Yaretsi is an indocile thief. With a band of pistoleros, she robs banks as well as trains. Alas, having disobeyed the mage who uses it too often, her acolytes try to shoot it down. She owes her survival only to the intervention of Douglas Reeves, the fallen marshal. Injured, she will have to answer for her crimes before Robert Anderson, nicknamed Judge Silence because he is mute. Fortunately, Yaretsi knows what the intractable lawman does not know: why and how he was deprived of the use of the word when he was a child. To escape the potency and revenge for those who betrayed him, she makes an agreement with him. An agreement that will lead them to face a common enemy in one of the most dangerous cities in the West: Deadhill!
