Three bad men rob a bank and with a posse hot on their trail head for the Colorado border. A mile from the border they find a man who has been shot and his wife of one day kidnapped by a gang of outlaws. With his last dying gasp, the man begs the men to get his wife back. With the posse bearing down on them the men must make a perilous decision - risk their lives to save the dead man's wife - or flee to safety in Colorado.
