A Royal Canadian Mounted Police corporal investigates the presumed murder of his friend and fellow Mountie, after the latter's horse comes back riderless.

Notes

  • Multiple sources explicitly state that this screenplay is an adaptation of a short story by American writer Peter B. Kyne (though it is possible that this is based on a mis-reading of Kyne having suggested the story for the film). So far, no specific short-story source for this film has been traced.
