The Barfield family, Arkansas sharecroppers, are heading west with the sons Jeffrey and Todd. In far West Texas their camp is attacked by Comanche raiders and the elder Barfields are killed and scalped. Younger youngster, Todd, is taken captive by the Indians. The more mature son, Jeffrey, manages to conceal and is rescued by the militia men. Jeffrey is taken in by the home-steading family, while Todd is sold, for a rifle and gunpowder, to a Comanchero investor called January.
Both become caught up in the turbulence of the Civil Battle, which even in distant West Texas, the boundary country with New Mexico, pits Confederate sympathizers against Unionists. The brothers, separated by assault, are destined to be rejoined by assault. Will they meet as friends or dangerous enemies?
