What should have been the simple robbery of a stagecoach for outlaw Brent Clancy turns into a deadly game of wits with a band of assassins determined to kill the President of the United States. In the course of this adventure, the one-time road agent finds himself on the right side of the law for a novelty, fighting both to save the President's life while at the same time avenging a personal grievance.
