Plot

A band of escaped convicts seeks shelter in the wilderness, with the morally upright Jim Canfield among them, wrongfully imprisoned for a crime he didn’t commit. Arriving at a remote farming settlement while the men are away, the fugitives ignite unease among the local women. Tensions escalate further as whispers of hidden treasure surface, leading Canfield to a shocking revelation: his betrayer is entwined within the very community that now shelters him. With trust shattered, Canfield must navigate danger and deception as he fights to clear his name.
