Synopsis
Yankee Davis (Douglas Fowley) and his partner, professor Newton (Ransom Sherman), are a pair of traveling hucksters on their way to a town in Arizona. Soon after they arrive, Yankee falls for a local girl, Mary Mason (Joan Woodbury). Mary's lawman father turns up dead, and Yankee is sure the man was murdered, but the death is ruled an accident. Believing something's off, Yankee has an elderly associate, Shaggy (Clem Bevans), pose as a rich man and offer a reward for clues about the killing.
