After the civil war, former soldier Xavier is doing the best he can on his late parents' hog farm but he is faced with poverty and debt. On a stormy day though, he witnesses the holdup of a stagecoach that challenges his moral code. Xavier decides to save a wounded bandit and take care of him before handing him over to the authorities. When the outlaw regains his senses, he proposes that they go after the thieves together for the bounty, as payback for their betrayal. Torn between principle and his need for a better life with the woman he loves, Xavier takes the most fatal decision of his life.

Can a former soldier and a bandit find their common way to justice?

Since the war ended, Albert has been living a life of crime. Unable to escape the memories from war that haunt him, he follows the outlaws' path with his gang, under one unbreakable rule; no one gets hurt. When his gang starts bending this rule, Albert is ready to leave, but the day he gets shot in the back turns his old partners into his sworn enemies. As his quest with Xavier begins, Albert will have to confront his own transgressive self, apart from his own vendetta.

Will he also pay the price for his own crimes, or will he take the chance to run?

On a mad chase through Kansas, Xavier and Albert realize they were both once soldiers, and their ghosts of the war walk alongside them, haunting their steps. As their relationship turns from that of captor and criminal to a respectful bond, they understand that the mission is no child's play. Will Xavier and Albert capture the gang, or will their friendship and lives sink in blood and corruption?
