When the cattlemen of Montana objected to having a sheep ranch in their midst they did not stop at underhand methods to force Trent, Valiant's, master to move on. Trent , however, did not intend to be scared off. Treachery in his own camp, the kidnapping of his son David, and an attempt on Valiant' life, bring the story to a dramatic conclusion.
