Neville Brand is in the title role of this Wagon Train story, playing notorious outlaw Jed Whitmore who disappeared and reinvented himself as Frank Lewis
who has a good reputation as a lawman. Not even wife Jan Clayton and daughter
Lois Roberts know who he is.
It's Roberts coming back home on the Chris Hale Wagon Train. Also traveling with her is reporter Les Tremayne from the New York Herald and two ex-convicts, Karl Swenson who was a Whitmore brother who was caught and William Mims his jailhouse buddy who is a real bottom feeder. How much of one we don't know until the end.
There's a matter of $50,000.00 in loot that was never recovered. There's a story promised to the New York Herald as well which Tremayne will get wired to him on proof of story.
Brand really has a good life in a town that was once and wild and wooly place that he cleaned up. How will exposure change all that, a question he has to wrestle with.
In the end everyone but Mims does the right thing.
