Four Color #983

In the dusty frontier town of ChinaTown, a wealthy gold mine partner named George G. George accuses his fellow miner Redstone of stealing shipments, and hires the enigmatic Paladin to uncover the truth—though if guilt is proven, George wants Redstone dead. With the stakes high and loyalty in question, Paladin must navigate suspicion and danger in a town where every man has a secret.

In "Playing With Loaded Dice!", Mrs. Shirley Riggs keeps her frontier casino running with integrity, but when a ruthless rival threatens her business, she turns to the sharp-eyed Paladin for protection—just as her husband, still healing from a mysterious attack, struggles to recover. With tension high and stakes even higher, the quiet strength of a woman running her own house of chance meets the quiet resolve of a man who knows how to handle danger.
