A Lesson in Triggernometry
10 pp · Western-Frontier

A drifter called the Tumbleweed Kid rides into Horn City and is mistaken for the notorious outlaw Curly Jim, accused of a bank robbery and murder that he didn't commit—and finds himself caught between a lynch mob and the truth. When the victim's niece, Jane Hunter, recognizes that the real killer has mismatched eyes, the Kid gets a second chance to help track down the actual culprit and clear his name. With triggering gunplay and twists around every corner, this tale delivers the kind of frontier justice that keeps a town guessing.

Gun Smoke in Pleasant Valley
10 pp · Western-Frontier

Tensions between two neighboring ranching families in the High Sierras explode when a ruthless scheme pins the blame for stolen cattle and burned homesteads on the wrong side—but young Jed Freeman discovers the truth behind the conspiracy and fights to restore peace to Pleasant Valley. With saboteurs, stampedes, and ambushes dogging a desperate cattle drive to the railway, Jed must expose the real culprit and settle the score before corruption destroys everything his family has built.

There's Gold in Crazy Mule

Billy Sanderson, the meek clerk of Crazy Mule's National Bank, finds himself caught in the middle when a dastardly scheme to swindle the town's prospectors threatens to turn the mining community into a ghost town—but when danger strikes, he becomes something far more formidable as the Tumbleweed Kid. With his quick draw and quick wit, he races to expose the con and restore faith to a town on the brink of collapse.
