A cavalry captain does his best to keep the peace between a tribe of Apaches and white settlers, but finds himself behind bars thanks to an overzealous major. He then faces a race against time to escape and prevent a massacre. Western, starring George Montgomery, Audrey Long and Carl Benton Reid.

It's 1885 in Arizona and an Army Captain has dispersed his troops to keep the whites off of Government land thereby keeping the peace with the Apaches. But there are those in Tucson that want the miners back looking for gold and they put pressure on officials in Washington. Soon a new commander arrives, the troops are recalled, and the miners go after gold. Whites then kill a miner with an arrow so they can attack the Indians hoping the troops wipe them out when they retaliate.
