When he was a kid, Lee Martin watched helplessly as Cletis Ashbaugh and his men from the Circle A ranch burned out his family’s Texas homestead. During the following years, Lee is equally helpless to prevent his parents’ decline—a downfall he directly attributes to the Ashbaugh raid, and especially the savagery of ramrod Orrie Pratt. As this traditional actioner opens, eight years have passed and Lee rides into the town nearest the Circle A. He immediately encounters Pratt—who doesn’t recognize him—scuffles, watches old Cletis drop over from a heart attack, and winds up in the jail of sympathetic sheriff, Homer Iman—who likewise doesn’t know him. Upon his release, Lee travels to the Circle A and secures a job with Ashbaugh’s daughter, Kate. Kate is the one Ashbaugh who Lee doesn’t hate. In fact, he always admired her. Kate pretends not to recognize him, but she does. Pratt still doesn’t know Lee, but assumes he’s a stock detective and panics. Orrie isn’t just a bad guy toward other ranchers, he’s been ripping off his employer as well and now fears that Kate is on to him.
