When Bobby Benson and the B-Bar-B Riders camp near an abandoned pueblo village, they find themselves caught between ghostly legends and a very real mystery—mysterious war cries spook their herd, an arrow kills a steer, and gunfire erupts from nowhere. Bobby suspects the "haunting" is a cover for something more sinister and devises a plan to flush out whoever is hiding in the ruins. What they uncover in the ghost town will test the riders' nerves and their wits.

In "The Trail of King Smokey!" from Bobby Benson's B-Bar-B Riders #7 (1951), a mysterious trail of hoofprints leads the B-Bar-B Riders to a secret border breach—where King Smokey, the legendary horse, may be the key to stopping a dangerous spy ring. With the Lemonade Kid at his side, Jo must follow the trail before stolen secrets reach Mexico, but the real danger lies not just in the mission, but in who—or what—is behind the trail.

Bobby and Tex set out for a day's hunting in the High Pass country, but after rescuing a robbery victim from a bear attack, they uncover a pattern: a gang has been systematically targeting wealthy travelers on the trails.

It's a mystery wrapped in frontier action as Bobby and Tex work to dismantle the operation from the inside.
