Plot

Under government orders, Eddie Dean and his partner Soapy Jones head to J.C. Morgan's ranch to purchase cavalry remounts for the Army, only to discover that J.C. is a woman. The nearby town, Dow City, is in the grip of lawlessness led by Trigger, Clem Kensington, and Joe Morino. Tucson Brown, one of J.C.'s trusted hands, is part of the gang. When Eddie decides to buy horses, Tucson steals the herd to sabotage the sale, resulting in brutal murders of investigating soldiers. The angered townsfolk elect J.C.'s foreman, Tennessee, as sheriff. However, when Tennessee is murdered by outlaws, Eddie, Soapy, and the reformed Tucson unite to take decisive action.
