This one gets close to where the trail ends for Tom Keene., 6 December 2005

This is the second series of westerns made for Monogram by Tom Keene; his first Monogram series were four films made in the first half of the 1937-38 production season, and this film is the fourth in a series of eight he made for producer Robert Tansey at Monogram in the 1941-42 production season. And all eight featured the credited Rusty the Wonder Horse. This one has no interior shots at all, and also no town scenes, which means producer Tansey didn't have to hire any extras to play townspeople and/or barflies.

A band of outlaws, led by Jay Lynch (Kenne Duncan),ambush and supposedly kill Lynch's half-brother, rancher Jim Dawson (Jimmy Aubrey), but Tom Sterling, working undercover for the Cattleman's Association, and his pal, Lopez Mendoza (Frank Yaconelli), find the wounded rancher, and keep him in hiding. Lynch and crooked lawyer Jasper Raines (Slim Andrews) have a forged will that leaves Dawson's ranch to Lynch, and half-Uncle Lynch shows up and orders Dawson's daughters Betty (Betty Miles) and Sugar (Sugar Dawn) to vacate his newly-acquired ranch. Tom, as usual with his gun belt buckled in the back, and Lopez come riding in to aid the Dawson sisters in their efforts to keep the ranch.
