Plot
Con Benteen is an undercover agent for the Cattlemen's Protective Association. He heads into a lawless town to investigate a gang of cattle rustlers who are known as "the Cloaked Riders". As part of his cover, Benteen joins the Riders to get close to the leader Cottle. Benteen's cover is blown and he identified as an undercover agent. The gang restrains Benteen and leaves him tied up in a shack containing explosives. He escapes and captures the rustlers. In the process, he wins the love of a dancehall girl named Flossie.[1]
