Trigger Bait
7 pp · western-frontier

Rip Ryan's fishing trip with his deputy Shuffle is cut short when gunshots erupt in the canyon, leading him to discover that the infamous killer Billy Bancroft has escaped from prison—and a manhunt is underway. When Sheriff Cantrell asks for Shuffle's help tracking the desperado, Rip devises a clever trap that uses his talkative deputy as bait to flush out the real threat hiding in the forest. What begins as a dangerous gambit in the trees becomes a tense confrontation that tests every ounce of Rip's skill and nerve.

One Horsepower
3 pp · western-frontier

Skitch Cartwell, the keeper of the remote "Last Outpost," finds himself knocked cold after a thief makes off with five hundred dollars and disables his vehicle—leaving him with nothing but a horse named Buckskin to give chase across the rugged frontier plains. As Skitch pursues the fleeing robber in his jeep through rough terrain toward Baldy Pass, he realizes his one advantage is knowing a shortcut no motorized contraption can handle. With grim determination and a steady aim, Skitch closes in on the thief for a final reckoning.

The Ghost of Golden Arrow
7 pp · western-frontier

When vicious criminals led by Chuck Vossner begin systematically forcing ranchers out of an oil-rich valley, Golden Arrow discovers the gang is working for someone even more dangerous—and he's determined to expose the mastermind. Playing on Vossner's fear that he's being haunted by a ghost, Golden Arrow uses a clever trick to scare the criminal into revealing his boss's identity. Now Golden Arrow must stop the scheme before the real villain can complete his deadly plan.

The Terror
6.67 pp · western-frontier

When thoroughbred horses vanish without a trace from a mountain ranch, Rocky Lane, an undercover marshal, arrives to investigate—only to find the locals ready to lynch a reformed ex-rustler they believe is responsible. As Rocky digs deeper, he discovers the thefts follow a pattern the accused man couldn't have orchestrated, and he devises his own plan to catch the real culprit red-handed. But when the truth reveals itself on a moonlit trail, it takes the courage and quick thinking of Rocky's great stallion, Black Jack, to face down the brutal force behind the disappearances.

Australia Bound!
4 pp · humor; western-frontier

Buffalo Bull spins a tall tale about his supposed trip to Australia, where he won a championship liar's medal—only to lose it to an even more creative fibber who managed to convince him that kangaroos were grasshoppers. When the boys at the saloon press him for details about fighting an actual kangaroo, his story only gets wilder, culminating in an absurd yarn about a mama kangaroo's hiccoughs. It's a lighthearted romp through the outback via Buffalo Bull's increasingly outlandish imagination.
