I assume you mean the book, "The Highwayman."
He defeats the bad guys.
The highwayman is a criminal, and he is in a state of conflict with the authorities (which in this case are military rather than civilian - they are the red coat troops).
The central conflict in Alfred Noyes' poem "The Highwayman" revolves around the love between the highwayman and Bess, the innkeeper's daughter, set against the backdrop of law enforcement and betrayal. The highwayman is pursued by soldiers, leading to a tragic confrontation that tests the limits of love and sacrifice. Bess's ultimate act of defiance to warn the highwayman highlights the theme of loyalty amidst danger, culminating in a poignant tragedy. This conflict underscores the tension between romantic idealism and harsh reality.
While Bess and the highwayman do not interact during the course of the poem, it is implied that the highwayman is in love with her, and she with him. The tension that develops over the course of the poem is directly related to will she put her love for him above her own life, which she finally does when she kills herself in order to warn him that the meeting with her that he is riding to is a trap.
