Jess is back on the hunt for more wanted men when he runs into an old friend, Alex Brand, who has decided to go into the bounty hunting business himself. He gets Jess to agree to teach him the business. A United States Senator's wife is brutally murdered by an outlaw gang led by a man called Hombre. Senator Thibadough calls on United States Marshal Frank Reedy to make sure that Hombre and his band of outlaws are dealt with in the most serious manner. The Senator, being a very rich and powerful man, puts up a fifty thousand dollar personal bounty for Hombre's dead body. When Reedy informs the Senator that Jess Williams is on the hunt for Hombre, the Senator offers Jess one hundred thousand dollars if he will personally bring him the dead body of Hombre. Hombre continues his killing spree, even wiping out an entire town and burning it to the ground. Jess is hot on the trail of Hombre and his men, but he is hampered with the job of training Alex Brand at the same time. To make his job even harder, two other bounty hunters are following him, hoping that Jess will lead them straight to Hombre.
