The film is a revenge Western with a twist: the protagonist is a woman raised by the Cherokee avenging her parents who were murdered by whites.

As soon as they leave the three bank robbers come out of hiding and demand Lone Eagle and his wife sell or trade fresh horses to them.

Rose acquires a room in a boarding house without realising the man who offers it to her, George Newcombe, is one of the murderers.

Despite the plea of self-defence, Rose is locked up where she meets Deacon, an elderly criminal with a plan for a bullion robbery.

The only scene she was doubled in was when stuntwoman Polly Burson climbed from a galloping horse onto a moving train.
