Heartbroken, Ping puts away his six shooters and establishes the 'Peace Hotel' promising protection and safe passage to all the visitors under his roof. For a decade his golden rule holds firm. That is, until the mysterious appearance of a beautiful young woman whose beauty, and hidden agenda, threatens to break his vow and engulf Ping in the very violence he had hoped to escape...
