In a small town of the Wild West, people of many different pasts and ambitions cross paths. Jebediah “Jeb” Henry, a Confederate veteran, tries to live a quiet life on his farm. Mary T. Moore arrives from New York, seeking a new and better life, while Irish immigrant John Coleman fights his way forward as a boxer, hoping to earn enough to start his own business. The town is led by Sheriff Jack Dashwood and deputies Tom Rutherford, Arthur Griswold. British businessman Richard Stringfellow runs saloon, while Claire Livingstone oversees the local brothel and fiercely protects her territory. Edward “Bloody Ed” Littleton, a former outlaw turned butcher, seeks redemption through good deeds and faith. Also Marion Ashford, a former slave working as an assistant to John Thame, the town’s blacksmith, mysterious man with a scar across his eye and a past as a trapper. Thomas Cornelius Pendleton, a Union veteran haunted by War, much like Jeb, that paradoxically binds them together. Jeb finds feelings for Mary. Thomas Orpington, a bounty hunter arrived on a job. Al Sotheby appears, a traveler and only survivor of a brutal Comanche attack. When a group of Comanches is spotted on the hills overlooking the town, Jeb recognizes it as a sign of an impending attack. Sotheby confirms. Sheriff Dashwood order evacuation of women and children by train, but not everyone leaves, Mary, Claire, and others choose to stay. Jeb, Pendleton, Coleman, Orpington, Thame, Bloody Ed, Dashwood and his men prepare town for defense. At dawn battle begins. A massive army of Comanche warriors surges in from all sides. The town is a battlefield. Dozens of civilists join the defense: farmers, laborers, merchants, and even those who never held a gun before. Bullets fly, buildings burn, and the streets fill with dust and blood. Many fall, but the town does not surrender. Its desperate battle of all who chose to stay and face their fate. And though they emerge victorious, the cost of that victory is far too big.
