Fighting Shadows

Fighting Shadows is a 1935 American Western film directed by David Selman from a screenplay by Ford Beebe, which stars Tim McCoy, Robert Allen, Geneva Mitchell, and Ward Bond.

Tim O'Hara is a Canadian Mountie who has been sent into the Indian Territory to investigate claims of a gang of bandits who are terrorizing the local trappers.

Being from the area, he looks up an old friend, Hank Bascom, who tells him that a local merchant, Stalkey, has been acting as a middleman for the bandits.

Back in town, Hascom has helped O'Hara to escape, and when Harrison arrives the two men fight.

The fight is stopped, however, when Stalkey and the rest of his gang show up and demand that O'Hara turn over the stolen furs.

It is revealed that Harrison was not a member of the gang, instead he was trying to get into Stalkey's good graces in order to uncover their identities.
