Synopsis

A Nevada Ranger's visit to Las Vegas for its frontier celebrations is interrupted by an investigation into money laundering. A socialite serving as festival queen and honorary deputy begins investigating the same circle after a killing. Their overlapping efforts bring organised crime into a programme of rodeos, music and public festivities.

Cast

Behind the scenes

The setting draws on Las Vegas's Helldorado celebrations, combining modern casinos with Western pageantry. The film marked Roy Rogers's final screen teaming with George 'Gabby' Hayes. Pat Brady, who later became a familiar Rogers sidekick, also appears.
