When a mysterious woman named Abigail Crandall boards a stagecoach bound for Longhorn, claiming she's after the McGilvery gang for robbing her father, the Texan smells opportunity—or trouble. Working with his partner Lopez, the Texan sets a trap, but nothing's quite what it seems when a sinister figure in town starts taking an interest in the girl. As the pieces move into place, the question becomes whether Abigail is truly an ally or if the McGilverys have orchestrated a double-cross that could catch everyone off guard.

Indians on Horseback
1 pp · Non-Fiction, Western-Frontier

Between 1600 and 1880, Native Americans transformed the horse from a foreign animal into the foundation of their way of life, becoming master horsemen whose riding skills earned them recognition as among the world's greatest cavalry. This period saw tribes across the frontier integrate horsemanship into their daily existence—a skill essential to hunting buffalo and maintaining their independence in the western territories. "Indians on Horseback" explores how the horse became inseparable from Native American culture and survival during these pivotal centuries.

Graveyard Gulch
6 pp · Western-Frontier

Tom Cullen, the Lone Vigilante, rides into Graveyard Gulch unarmed to strike a deal with the sheriff and clear his name of crimes he didn't commit—but a deadly ambush by dope smugglers threatens to frame him for murder instead. With his young ally Jimmy at his side and the clock working against him, Tom must outmaneuver ruthless criminals and prove his innocence before the noose tightens. A tense border showdown where cunning and quick reflexes become his only weapons.
