Jesse James #24

Jesse James and his gang track a band of imposters who've been robbing settlers while posing as the James outfit, but their pursuit leads them to the quiet town of Shady Corners, where nothing is quite what it seems. When they accept the hospitality of a seemingly respectable local named Hiram Grainger, the outlaws close in—and a shocking betrayal reveals the real architect of the crimes. It's a tense game of deception where reputation becomes a weapon, and the hunter must learn to spot the killer wearing the friendliest smile.

Framed for a bank robbery he didn't commit, Jesse James finds himself facing the hangman's noose in a Nevada jail—until he stages a daring escape and tracks down the real culprit, a brutal rancher named Harve Roberts. Working undercover on Roberts' spread, Jesse witnesses the man's cruelty firsthand and finally confronts him with the stolen money and the truth. In this tale by Everett Raymond Kinstler, justice comes full circle when the real outlaw finally pays for his crimes.

When hardened outlaw Stick Gordon and his crew take jobs at a ranch as cover for a planned stagecoach robbery, they don't count on Hobbly Jones—a crippled ranch hand with a past and a score to settle—discovering their scheme and moving the buried gold before they can retrieve it. Now trapped in the remote canyon where the treasure lies hidden, the criminals face a danger far worse than any lawman, as the very landscape itself becomes their undoing. A tense Western tale where greed and vengeance collide with forces no outlaw can outrun.
