The film tells the story of an outlaw who masquerades as a blind man's son in order to trick the old man out of a cache of gold located in a vacated town. A gang of bandits appears in the same town to rob a payroll coach that has to pass through and they take the blind man's gold as well, setting the desperado against the gang.
After a chance encounter with a Confederate officer on the brink of death, the villainous outlaw, Steve Blasco, decides to visit the dusty ghost town of Overton, and the deceased's blind father, Sam. Entrusted with a message by the dying soldier, and carrying his one-of-a-kind hand-made revolver, Steve sets out to convince Sam that he is, indeed, his missing son, bent on getting his hands on a hidden stash of gold. However, things will soon take a turn for the unexpected when a ruthless gang of cut-throats determined to rob a Confederate payroll coach strong-arms Steve to lend a hand. Will Blasco, the remorseless desperado, take his revenge on his enemies?—Nick Riganas
