Watch a stripped down cowboy rescue a rancherâs daughter from kidnappers in the Verde Valley. Witness a loner with a haunted past steal a proud Pawnee woman out from under a rival tribeâs nose.

For longtime fans and new readers alike, this final collection is a testament to a master storyteller doing what he did better than anyoneâspinning a damn fine yarn.
