bounty hunter john delivers four wanted criminals, all of them dead. when he checks out the new posters at the sheriff's office he recognises his half-brother clint on one of them. john could never forget how clint out of jealousy killed their mutual father and how he blamed the misdeed on john who instead of his brother spent 10 years in prison. now clint is good for 6,000 dollars. john has no reservations to go after him because it was clint who rendered john an outcast with no other chance left to make a living other than by becoming a bounty hunter. when john eventually gets to him, clint is just fighting with his gang about a booty of 100,000 dollars.
