The setting is Montana ranch country fowllowing World War 2. J W Ewing, a long time cattle baron in the area, wants to take over the property of his neighbour Ella Conners. She's a hard working, feisty rancher who's inherited the land from her father. Ewing has connections at the bank and eagerly awaits the forclosure on her mortgage. Meanwhile, he hires an assassin to murder Frank Athearn who has purchased a piece of Ella's spread. It's a bad move which throws this World War 2 veteran together with Ella. Along with Dodger, her seasoned cowhand, they labour doubly hard to bring their cattle to the market and outwit Ewing.
