Former U. S. Marshal Tom Alvarez wonders why he's come to Denver for this gathering of the "old boys," the lawmen who tamed the West. This flint-hard straight shooter has little interest in yarns spun by the likes of self-promoter Wyatt Earp, or in the company of blowhard Ben Comstock and alcoholic Arnold Toothacker.

Yet suddenly, Alvarez finds himself in the middle of one final deadly adventure.

When an old friend gets caught up in a prostitute's murder and sinister forces put more than one of the old boys' lives in grave danger, Alvarez knows he must act--even though it must be outside the law and could well be the last thing he ever does.

Peopled with the famous and not-so-famous lawmen from bygone days and even the showman Buffalo Bill Cody, The Old Boys pits the code of the Old West against the moral decay of a new and even more dangerous age.
