Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Ruth Hussey stars in this big-budget Republic actioner. She plays Christine Powell, the grasping, conniving sister of Minnesota mining magnate David Powell (John Agar). Using her feminine wiles, Christine tries to undermine her brother's competition by romancing rival mine owner Kyle Ramlo (Rod Cameron). He falls for her ruse, deserting his loyal sweetheart Cathy Nordlund (Gale Storm) in the process. Christine then proceeds to strip Ramlo of his wealth and prestige on her brother's behalf. How long will it be before the thick-headed Ramlo finally wises up? As was always the case at Republic, Woman of the North Country is peopled by some of the best supporting players in the business, including J. Carroll Naish, Jay C. Flippen, Jim Davis and Barry Kelley.
