The story starts off in the quiet town of Frontera, in Rio County Texas. A skeleton is found in the middle of the desert by some army reserves people. They call up Sam (Chris Cooper), the sherriff. He conducts investigations to track down what happened to the body. It is revealed that the body is of Charlie Wade (Kris Kristofferson), the meanest, baddest sherriff there ever was. Wade controlled liquor distribution, illegal immigrants, etc. If you had some business going on, Wade was in on it, or else you were dead. It just so happened that Buddy Deeds (Matthew McConaughy), Sam's
father, had a quarrel with Wade right before his death. So, the question is, Who killed Wade? Why? How? Only the citizens of Frontera know, and soon you will too.
