Out in the northern U.S. wilderness, mining partner Nicky has a rough time making it 'home' to his and partner Dudley's gold-mining operation. He is confused with someone else by a strange young woman, who surprises him with her hostility, and further bemused by changes in the camp. The young woman is Dudley's fiancee, and though Nicky realities she's stolen his heart, he's not quite sure that she's not out to steal his gold instead. Something isn't quite right, and Nicky aims to find out what, if he doesn't get shot, drowned or eaten by wolves in the process of protecting his stake in an unexpectedly rich mine.
