Jess is on the hunt for another wanton killer by the name of Ty Fulton. Along the way, he comes across an old man, his daughter and granddaughter. They were on their way to a town called Carrington to start a new business. Jess camps at their site, but the old man passes away during the night. Not wanting to leave a woman and her young daughter riding the trail alone, he decides to escort them to their destination safely. Luckily, he ends up finding his wanted man while doing so. He’s ready to head back out on the hunt for the next man on his list, but a call from United States Marshal Frank Reedy makes him change course. He heads to a town called Arville to meet with John Bodine. Jess has to pin his federal badge on again and join Bodine on a special assignment. A man rich enough to buy the entire state of Texas wants an entire town under his thumb, but Jess and Bodine have other ideas. Blood is spilled and graves are filled as a struggle ensues between them and a rich and powerful man.
