An anthology issue featuring two stories: In the lead story, a group of men plan to derail a train by placing objects on the tracks along the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railway, with one man sent to set a fire as a signal.

When corrupt Indian Agent Johnson systematically starves the Cheyenne people while pocketing their provisions, Golden Arrow springs into action—but the crusader's campaign of righteous theft and daring raids only provokes Johnson to take a hostage, forcing a desperate reckoning at the fort. With proof of the agent's crimes in hand and his wits matched against Johnson's murderous cunning, Golden Arrow must navigate treachery, betrayal, and a perilous cliff-side confrontation to protect both Nanooka and the fragile peace between two peoples.

Wild Bill Hickok

Wild Bill Hickok arrives in Deadwood with a fearsome reputation, but on August 2, 1876, he makes a fateful decision that breaks his survival instincts—sitting at a poker table with his back to the open door. When a stranger named Jack M'Call walks over from the bar and shoots him down, Hickok's final hand—aces and eights—falls to the floor, forever earning the name "the Dead Man's Hand" in frontier gambling lore.
