An outlaw gang takes hostages at a remote stagecoach station in the west. They stash passenger Susan Hayward and her toddler in a room with cowboy Tyrone Power who works for the line. They manage to stay alive by passing themselves off as husband and wife, while secretly chipping away at the wall in their prison room. The gangsters eventually turn on each other in a violent finale. Tense drama with some memorable characters, particularly Jack Elam as the outlaw who turns against their leader.
