The titular character finds himself right in the middle of the Lincoln County War. The murderous conflict, driven by greed and corruption, comes as Murphy's Store is no longer the only significant name in town. Englishman John Tunstall shakes things up when he moves to Lincoln and kickstarts a commercial feud. Wild chases and shootouts follow, with ambushes, killings, and even a pivotal assassination. This all leads to whether Billy the Kid will even survive the Lincoln County War.
