Cheyenne #11

In "The Rio Smugglers," Bronco Layne races against time to clear his friend Jim O'Neil, wrongly condemned for murder in the dusty town of Trinity. As he uncovers a web of deceit tied to Duke Rhein’s cattle smuggling operation across the Rio Grande, Layne must outwit ruthless thugs and a deadly deadline—especially when he learns O'Neil’s wife and daughter are held hostage. With justice hanging in the balance, the truth lies buried in hollowed-out horns and hidden trails.

In the rugged frontier of Cheyenne #11, Small Bear, still healing from a battle with a mountain lion, is haunted by the beast’s later rampage on his tribe’s horses—spurred by hunger, not malice. Though forbidden by the Chief, Small Bear takes it upon himself to track the animal, driven by duty and honor. The story unfolds with quiet intensity as he confronts the wounded predator, not as a monster, but as a force of nature, and faces the consequences of his choice.

In the Arizona Territory, outlaw-turned-ally Bronco Layne uncovers a deadly conspiracy when he finds a dead cavalryman near Fort Grant. With the help of Colonel Burton, he learns that a traitorous sergeant is working with the crooked Tucson Ring to sabotage the army—selling bad supplies and turning soldiers to desert. Determined to bring them down, Bronco goes undercover, only to be exposed and barely escape with his life. Now he sets a trap of his own, turning the tables on the criminals who thought they were in control.
