Synopsis
Assigned to help the sheriff find a gang of counterfeiters, Firebrand Jordan happens upon the difficulties of Joan and Peggy Howe, whose father, Judd, has disappeared from their ranch. David Hampton, who always seems to have a lot of money, very smoothly suggests to Joan that he will forget Judd's debts in return for her favors, and Joan gladly accepts this condition. After numerous changes in Firebrand's fortunes, he finally discovers Hampton to be the source of the counterfeit money and the man responsible for Judd Howe's abduction.
