Clarice DuPont is a famous songstress from the east whose manager convinces her it's time to go west. She does have second thoughts, however, which prompts him to find an escort/bodyguard for her. He decides to ask Clint Adams who finds the request different enough to consider. He comes to New York to meet the manager and Clarice and so begins an interesting trek east, beginning in Kansas City, Chicago, St. Louis, and across the Mississippi. Clint's talents as both escort and bodyguard are tested and it soon becomes apparent that someone with bad intentions is following them.
