The Fatal Witness

16 pp · Western-Frontier

When a stagecoach driver named Suzy rejects an unwanted suitor's advances, the rejected drifter's wounded pride sets off a chain of trouble that reaches far beyond a simple dustup. A robbery at the Hilton Gold Mine and an attempted murder point the finger at the drifter, but Lash Larue, the roving marshal, must uncover the real culprit before an innocent man swings for a crime he didn't commit. With only scattered evidence and a case full of contradictions, it falls to the King of the Bullwhip to crack the truth in "The Fatal Witness."
