Bobby Benson and Miss "Lemonade" Brayne must stop the Spider—a criminal mastermind operating from Mexico who has kidnapped wealthy Mexicans and is using a deadly mechanical saw to execute his victims. The story involves Bobby's pursuit across the Mexican border, encounters with the Spider's agents, a dangerous saw-trap at a lumber mill, and ultimately Bobby's battle to rescue the captives and capture the Spider before he can complete his deadly plan.

When Bobby Benson discovers a mysterious sickness spreading through his prize herd just days before market, he and his B-Bar-B riders uncover strange cuts in the ground near the ranch fence—and a pair of armed neighbors who'd rather shoot than talk. As the boys set traps and Bobby devises an ingenious plan using luminous paint and ultraviolet light, they race to catch the rustlers red-handed before the final theft can happen. It's a clever cat-and-mouse game that tests both Bobby's wits and his riders' courage against an enemy operating under cover of darkness.

Caught in the Spider's deadly webs high above a canyon, the Kid must use his wits and whatever he can scavenge to fight his way through the villain's mountain lair, where a hijacked train and a fortune in stolen goods await.
