Reprisal!

Frank Madden, a half-breed, conceals his true identity to acquire land, but escalating racial tensions in the town ultimately compel him to stand up for what is right.

In this western drama, a ranch owner of mixed heritage, posing as white, arrives in town just as a jury acquits three white brothers of lynching three Indians. Tensions rise as the brothers use the rancher's land for their cattle, leading to a confrontation. When an Indian brother of one of the victims kills a Shipley, the rancher is falsely accused and imprisoned, prompting the brothers to organize a lynch mob to storm the jail.
