Escape to the Queer Frontier!
In 1856, a gay gunslinger, a lesbian doctor disguised as a man, a boy pulp fiction writer, and a wanna be assassin become mismatched colleagues in search of the fabled town of "Utopia."
Along the way they hold Presbyterians hostage, ride a tornado with a Mormon wagon train, rob an offbeat stagecoach, and join the spirited citizens of Utopia in a war against the evil clan of the Wunderfahrt Ranch.
Can our heroes find love and win a battle for their very survival?
