In this Western, a group of five men searching for a gold mine kills all but one member of an Apache tribe. Jemme (Marie Gahva), the sole surviving Apache, agrees to lead the men to the mine, but trouble brews when she bonds with Pitcalin (Joel McCrea). Greedy for their share of the riches, the other four prospectors grow suspicious of Pitcalin instead of keeping an eye out for other dangers lurking in the rugged terrain.
