A youn ranch hand and friend of Hoppy's is ambushed and killed right after a cattle drive. The young man, Bud Lawton (Tom Seidel) was to inherit a ranch and run it with his sister, whom he hadn't seen in years.
Hoppy, California and Lucky go to the ranch to see Bud's sister Faith (Claudia Drake). When they arrive they stumble upon a bizarre mystery.
A local cattleman named Mark Foster (Douglass Dumbrille) has set things up so a lookalike of Bud will come to the ranch, take over and then sell the ranch to Foster so he has all the water rights in the valley.
Hopalong is on to their game and he plans to stop it. Once again you have a lot of great action, light comedy and a very good plot. If you're a "B" western fan, this is a very good time.
The rest of the cast includes Andy Clyde, Jimmy Rogers, Robert Mitchum, Glenn Strange and Roy Barcroft.
