Molly Dunn, the sister of the fastest gunfighter in the Tonto, Slinger Dunn, who by the way, threatens to hang Jim Traft's hide on the drift fence being built, falls in love with Jim. This is their story, of how Jim Traft earned the respect of his cowboys, fought to save the ranch from rustlers, and win Molly Dunn. I highly recommend it.
