Paradise, a misnamed town if ever there was one, didn't want Don Harding around. The Sheriff made that more than clear the day Don arrived. But Don figured he'd stay around at least long enough to find out why.
It didn't improve his frame of mind when someone threw a rattler on to the bed in his hotel room. He threw it right back - but now he had to know who was after him.
Nor did his disposition get any better when his cabin - all that was left of the ranch his brother had run - was burned to the ground, along with his trapped horse. This was the point at which Don Harding decided to stay in Paradise - indefinitely.
