Citadel of Crime

Gang boss Nick Gerro wants to distribute moonshine statewide but is frustrated when the distrustful hillbillies of Pine Flats refuse to cooperate. After one of his men, Bull Hymer, is wounded in an encounter with the hillbillies, Gerro decides to have Hymer confess to a murder for which Gerro had previously framed his rival, Cal Fullerton. Gerro wants to save Cal from the electric chair and induce him to work for the gang because he is from Pine Flats and is trusted by the locals. On the day Cal is released from jail, he is brought to the gang headquarters, where the scheme is explained to him by Carnie, Gerro's right-hand man, as Gerro does not want Cal to know that he is in charge. Cal suspects that someone else is running the gang but nonetheless agrees to talk to the moonshiners. Upon returning home, Cal goes to the tavern owned by Martin Jackson, and there is welcomed by his former friends, including Jackson's daughter Ellie, who is now a schoolteacher
