  • "A no-good thief takes on a job with a huge payout that he can't possibly resist! Steven Train is a thief who knows a thing or two about how to handle a firearm. One day he's approached by another crook named John Rainier to go on a manhunt. Train is wary at first, but when Rainier tells him there's a huge payout, he decides to take on the job. Rainier works for Patrick Comstock, a rich rancher looking for an honest man to go on a dangerous mission in hopes of finding his long lost friend. Comstock's friend disappeared after losing all his earnings in oil stock investments that went bad. However, as luck would have it, one of the oil stocks bounced back and is now worth $50,000! Comstock needs Train to find his long lost friend and give him his earnings. Train takes on the job with the intent of stealing the cash and splitting it with the no-good Rainier, but a snooping detective investigating a number of older crimes Train committed could ruin their best-laid plans. And to top it off, Train has an odd change of heart and decides that if Comstock enlists his help, he will double-cross Rainier and will instead faithfully carry out his mission to find the missing person and return to him his money."
  • "Thief Steven Train is offered a job to transport $50,000 with the tempting possibility to split it with fellow crook John Rainier. Or maybe he will take the job, double-cross Rainier, and deliver all the money to the rightful owner. That is, if he can find the owner, and if he isn't nabbed by a persistent detective along the way."
  • "Longtime thief and card sharp Steven Train is sought out by another crook, John Rainier, with a proposal. Rainier saved rich rancher Patrick Comstock from serious injury and was rewarded with an easy job. Now Comstock has asked Ranier to help find an honest man skilled with firearms for a special mission. Years ago, Comstock unintentionally benefited from bad financial advice he gave to a friend, and wants to find him to pay it back. Rainier wants Train to apply for the job -- on the understanding that they'll split the money that Comstock entrusts to him."
