Where Trails Divide

Tom Allen (Tom Keene), a young lawyer employed by an express company, arrives in the rough frontier town of Rawhide intending to open a law office. He is actually operating undercover to investigate a persistent gang of outlaws who have been robbing express shipments and terrorizing the area. Upon his arrival, circumstances quickly change: instead of practicing law, Tom becomes the town sheriff. He sets out to confront the outlaw gang led by the ruthless Mississippi Blackie Wilson (Warner Richmond), a tough and cunning bandit boss.

A personal stake complicates Tom's mission—he hopes and fears that his estranged younger brother Billy (Dave Sharpe) is not involved with Wilson's gang. This brother-against-brother tension adds emotional weight to the story as Tom pursues justice while trying to determine Billy's true allegiance. With the help of allies in the community, the sheriff uncovers the gang's operations, faces ambushes and gunfights, and works to bring Wilson and his men to justice.
