A man is falsely accused of murder during the American Civil War. The only person who can prove his innocence is a dancer who is secretly leading a double life as a spy for the Confederacy and needs his help to deliver vital information to the rebels. Western, starring Glenn Ford, Rhonda Fleming and Edmond O'Brien.

Gil Kyle finds himself caught up in the politics and unrest of the American Civil War and soon gets himself framed for a murder. His only alibi is Candace Bronson, who is aiding the Confederate cause and has left the territory to deliver a vital message about a Yankee gold shipment. So he sets off in pursuit, running into desperados, government agents, and guerrilla fighters, who are more interested in profit than ideals. Written by Alfred Jingle
