Jed Brand is a man on the run from a crime he didn't commit. Wanted for the murder of a lawman in Abilene, Kansas, Jed stalks the real killer as he travels across the West. The man he seeks is Silas Colter--a cold-blooded killer. Colter, however, knows that Brand is on his trail and cunningly assumes his identity and plunges Brand into even more trouble. The bounty on his head keeps growing as he is blamed for every murder and bank robbery that Colter commits. As he makes his away across the West searching for justice, Brand must try and capture Colter while fighting off bounty hunters and vengeful US Marshal Luke Garner-- who believes that Brand killed his brother.
