Crooks discover a Genghis Khan treasure ship on the Canada-Alaska border but the treasure is hidden somewhere on land. In their efforts to find the hidden treasure they resort to murder and sabotage to stop the construction of the Alcan highway which will bring homesteaders to the area. Sergeant Royal of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police battles through 12 episodes to find the crooks and to learn the identity of their mysterious leader known only as 'The Boss'.

There is plenty of action in this serial; but not enough to bring Jim Bannon up to hero standards. (He was much better in the Red Ryder series). This may be another case of a leading man being cast because of his resemblance to ace stuntman, Tom Steele. Stuntwork throughout the 12 chapters is very good with Steele working effectively with Dale Van Sickle and Ken Terrell. Production value is also somewhat lower than average. For the serial enthusiast, however, it is worth viewing.
