In "The Four Flusher," the Cartwrights follow a trail of missing cattle to a treacherous canyon, where a single night unfolds a clever scheme: rustlers lure the herd into a river, then reroute them into a hidden cavern. Written by Gaylord Du Bois and illustrated by Tom Gill—with inks by Tom Gill—this 1962 Dell adventure blends suspense and frontier cunning in a story that’s as tight as a noose. The cover by Tom Gill captures the tension with a stark, shadowed image of the canyon’s edge.

In the stark silence of a moonless western night, Adam Cartwright follows a trail of vanished cattle into a treacherous canyon, where shadows hide a clever trap: rustlers using the river and a hidden cavern to steal livestock. The tension builds as Adam moves through the dark, testing his wits against a plan as cold and calculated as the desert night.
