Divided loyalties cause Fallon Vejar to leave his outlaw band when its leader decides to rob the bank in Vejar's hometown. Though having fled two years earlier after being accused of murder, his fears for Raya ? the girl he left behind ? make him return to Yancey.
Although discovering that Raya is to marry his old friend Sheriff George Harker, Vejar is prepared to help Harker repel the very outlaws he'd abandoned. But Vejar's loyalties are again put to the test when the sheriff is shot and he is left to defend the hostile town on his own. Now he must head towards a final showdown with all the odds against him.
