Produced by FBO Pictures, Yellowback was ultimately release by FBO's successor RKO Radio. Tom Moore stars as Canadian Mountie O'Mara, whose reputation for cowardice seriously compromises his effectiveness. Given one last chance to prove his worth, O'Mara is sent out to capture escaped killer Jules (Tom Santschi). In the course of his investigation, O'Mara is forced to spend the night with Jules' sweetheart Elise (Irma Harrison). This incident nearly costs the lives of both hero and heroine, but by film's end O'Mara has redeemed himself and gotten his man -- and his woman, too.
