In the main story, Red Mask pursues the Presto Kid, a magician and criminal, after the villain robs a stagecoach. Red Mask tracks the Presto Kid to a magic show where the criminal attempts to escape, but Red Mask captures him and recovers the stolen loot, which contained public funds intended for building a new town hall. In a secondary story, Black Phantom and her associate Abel Raymond pursue members of the Green Mask Gang who have stolen a moneybelt, attempting to recover the funds and turn them over to the authorities.
Red Mask finds himself repeatedly outmaneuvered by bounty hunter Fred Elkins, who keeps capturing wanted men before the deputy sheriff can track them down—until a dangerous scheme emerges when Elkins attempts to free a prisoner during a stage transfer. As Red Mask investigates, he uncovers a sinister conspiracy that goes far deeper than simple competition, forcing the crimson cavalier to confront an enemy far more cunning than he initially realized.
When a girl deputy becomes the prime suspect in a crime wave plaguing the territory, Redmask refuses to believe the accusations—and sets out to prove her innocence by unmasking the real leader of the notorious Green Mask Gang. Following a crucial clue hidden in an Indian-made rope, Redmask and the Black Phantom must navigate a web of false evidence and deadly ambushes to expose the truth before the real culprits escape justice.
