West and Gordon assist in the evacuation of Tonka Flats, a small Colorado town. Promptly at noon the town is completely obliterated by a single cannon shell - just as a mysterious man calling himself "the Falcon" had claimed it would be. The Falcon is demanding $1 million in exchange for ''not'' blowing up UsefulNotes/{{Denver}}. The agents are tasked with tracking down the Falcon and his weapon before that threat can be carried out; their investigation lands them in Sinful, Colorado, a group of international criminals and a whole lot of danger.
