A tense, action-driven Western noir centered on a love triangle and industrial ambition, where desire and greed collide amid bandit violence and betrayal.

Wildcatter Jeff Dawson does his best to bring in a gusher in Mexico despite continual bandit raids. He asks for help from his ex-employer Ward Conway, but Conway, now married to Dawson's ex-lover Marina refuses, fearing that his wife will want to renew her romance with the other man.
