After the Civil War, three Valeron brothers brought their families to an untamed wilderness at the Colorado-Wyoming border. Fifteen years later, they had carved out an empire, complete with cattle, mining, a mill, and the nearby town named after them. When Scarlet Valeron, poised to be married in Pueblo, Colorado, is kidnapped and her betrothed killed, a desperate call goes out to the Valeron family. Brothers, cousins, and hired help unite in an effort to find her and bring her back. They learn Scarlet is on her way to Brimstone, a bandit stronghold of over a hundred gunmen and outlaws. Most men would look at the incredible odds and figure Scarlet was lost forever. The Valeron's, however, see it as a matter of family honour to get their kin back, and settle the score!
