Plot
After witnessing the massacre of Joe Benson and his band of prospectors (and wiping out the killers), Sartana is ready to do some investigating as to why. However, since almost everyone in the town of Indian Creek is eager to buy up the dead man's land, there's a long list of suspects, including the town banker, a female saloon owner and the owner of the local gambling house. Even the local sheriff and the dead prospector's niece who now owns the land can't be ruled out, and the closer Sartana gets to the truth the more attempts are made on his life and the more funerals he'll willingly pay for...as long as HE is the one doing the killing.
