In Virginia City, Bret (James Garner) makes the acquaintance of Alex Jennings (played by future "Colonel Klink" Werner Klemperer, a slightly addled mining engineer. Agreeing to help Alex in his mission to improve the working conditions for local miners, Bret finds himself in a whole heap of trouble--much of it brought about by a man who is supposed to be dead. Among the guest players is the delightful Ruta Lee, who here as elsewhere wields a mighty mean six-shooter when the occasion demands. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
