A Town Has Turned to Dust

[1] Jerry Paul is a successful, racist dweller-merchant whose wife is overly attentive to their driver-servant Tommy.

Jerry has Tommy arrested on false charges of rape and theft.

The town's Sheriff Denton is unable to stop a vigilante mob led by Jerry from lynching Tommy but the incident is recorded by a TV reporter named Hannify, who is visiting Earth from New Angeles.

The rest of the story revolves around how the report is used, revelations of a past crime, and a showdown in the style of High Noon.
