A dispatch case carrying $30,000 in payroll money is stolen from the Army officer serving as its courier. The Army suspects that the aging officer may have stolen the money to finance his retirement, but Clay isn't so sure - especially with three other likely suspects - a down-on-his-luck gambler, a woman living beyond her means and a storekeeper who claims to be crack shot, but can't hit a would-be thief at point blank range.
