This anthology issue features multiple western crime stories. "Six-Gun Smith" involves Smith investigating cattle rustling attributed to a "Wolf Woman"—a renegade Indian woman—only to discover that Dolly, his best friend, was actually responsible; Dolly is found murdered before the truth emerges, and Smith is initially suspected but ultimately cleared when the real killer is apprehended. "Fighting Bob Dale" follows the titular hero as he investigates a murder at Jenks' farm, uncovers a scheme involving hidden gold nuggets, and must rescue a kidnapped child from the criminals behind the scheme.

Wilma West, the capable rancher of the W-W Ranch near Mesa City, finds herself caught up in a desperate rescue when two drifters abduct Red Feather, the young daughter of Bull Horn, an Indian who lives on her land. Wilma's quick thinking and courage drive her to track down the kidnappers herself, leading to a tense standoff in the hill country where both she and Red Feather face danger at the hands of the ruthless pair. With lives hanging in the balance and an unexpected ally closing in, Wilma must rely on her wits to see that justice is served.

The Wolf Woman of Warago

Six-Gun Smith rides into the frontier town of Warago haunted by reports of a "Wolf Woman"—a mysterious figure blamed for spooking cattle hands and driving off livestock under cover of night. When a local rancher offers Smith work moving a herd through the dangerous hills, the gunslinger sets out to uncover the truth behind the legend, only to find himself caught between a shape-shifting terror and something far more sinister lurking in the shadows. With blazing six-guns and sharp wits, Smith pieces together a puzzle that will expose what really stalks the night near Warago.

Fighting Bob must track the desperados to their hidden cabin hideout in the hills and mount a daring rescue before they break her will—or worse.
