Douglas Mortimer, is a former Confederate Army officer whose sister committed suicide after being raped by Indio. The two men first encounter each other in El Paso and prepare for a showdown, but instead they decide to join forces in tracking down Indio and splitting the reward. To win favor with Indio, the stranger organizes a jailbreak and frees the outlaw’s best friend.  At first, they go their own ways, but eventually get together to try and find him. But are they after him for the same reason ?
