Wyatt is a ruthless rancher trying to gain control of the other ranches in the valley through gaining its water rights. After his men slaughter everyone on the Borden ranch, he is convinced that heir Alice Borden will sell, but she hires childhood friend Joe Martin to keep it going. Marshal Buck Roberts infiltrates the gang posing as a wanted outlaw and rescues an orphaned baby, the only survivor of another slaughter. Meanwhile Sandy goes undercover as a cantankerous bunkhouse cook. Also involved is Marshal Tim McCall, who becomes involved in the area supposedly on the track of Buck, the bogus bandit from Bodie.
