The story

In the desolate remains of a once-thriving mining settlement called El Dorado—situated on the edge of Death Valley—a gang of racketeers led by Derby Scanlon, along with his associates Slug and Dummy, establish a criminal scheme. The town, long abandoned despite its proximity to gold veins, becomes the perfect setting for their plan: they spread a false rumor of a new gold strike to lure fortune seekers into the desert, intending to exploit them through their bar and other rackets. The rumor sparks a rush of hopeful prospectors.
