Plot
After the Civil War, Brothers Dan and Neil Hammond return to Texas and to their parents' ranch. Neil is happy to simply help run the spread, but Dan's ambition is to build an empire, the way ruthless business tycoon Cord Hardin has.
From the moment they meet, Hardin's wife Lorna has romantic designs on Dan. After a series of confrontations between the two men results in Hardin's death, the two become involved. Dan becomes a powerful figure, overseeing a vast enterprise that involves rustling horses and buying up land by taking advantage of lax laws. He corrupts many officials and makes many enemies.
When the marshal of Austin is relieved of duty due to his association with Dan, Neil becomes the law and a violent showdown between the brothers is inevitable.
