In 1884 Texas Ranger Captain Bernard Wallace and two other Texas Rangers are dispatched to the Texas Panhandle following a string of bank robberies and brutal murders. When the rangers discover that after each bank robbery the outlaws escape into the New Mexico Territory, Captain Wallace solicits the help of New Mexico Territorial Marshal, CW Gentry, to assist in tracking down the bandits. After listening to the Captain's plan for bringing the bandits to justice, CW agrees to help the rangers with what appears to be a fairly straight forward plan. But things get complicated after a shootout with the bandits and then...CW meets a saloon keeper known as the Panhandle Princess.
