Death or the secret of the hidden gold-mine! That's the choice that faces settler Peters when he is captured by a band of unscrupulous renegades. Unmoved by threats, his resolution weakens when his young son fails into the outlaws' clutches. Nothing now can save the day-or - could it be that Lone Ranger takes a hand?
