The story

A special investigator, Jeff Carr (Lex Barker), is deployed to the cattle town of Tomahawk to collect evidence on a number of stagecoach holdups and killings. The town's leading banker-politician Ranse Jackman (John Dehner) and his gunslinging brothers resent Carr's inquiries, and blame the robberies on the upland sheepherders, led by Alec Black (Stephen McNally). Carr quickly discovers that Jackman and his henchman are the actual culprits, but a romantic conflict arises when Carr falls in love with shepherdess Holly Kenton (Mara Corday), the woman who Alec Black is also courting.
