The Old West is not dead. Hidden away in a lush Southern California valley, there still remain many vast holdings, original grants from kings, tracts on which a man may ride all day without coming to the farthest boundaries. It is to this country Ben Whitney-a young financier who, after many years of spectacular success, had been caught in a wily competitor's trap and ruined- went in search of peace. Before he had spent a week at the picturesque old King of Spain Rancho, he found that peace was only for those who had the courage to take it at the point of a gun. Then he fell under the spell of the beautiful Teresita Calderon and heard the mysterious story of her lost inheritance. Soon the limitless resources of this totally wild countryside dawned on him, and he knew that at last he had found his rightful home.
