Contains 6 stories
The King's Ransom!
8 pp · western-frontier

When a visiting king arrives incognito in Sockeye Valley for a surprise birthday party, two small-time bandits overhear the secret and hatch a scheme to kidnap him for ransom—hiring a pair of desperate men to do their dirty work. Lash LaRue, the roving marshal with his bullwhip and quick draw, soon discovers the crime and picks up the trail, facing off against would-be extortionists who've underestimated both the lawman and the stakes of their ambition. It's a race against time as Lash closes in to stop the kidnappers and save the day before the birthday surprise turns into a tragedy.

Good Reading
1 pp · humor; western-frontier

Loco Lew picks up a traveling stranger at the train depot and offers to drive him to town—for fifty cents. When the passenger questions why the depot sits so far from town, Lew delivers a bit of frontier logic that lands perfectly: they put it as close to the railroad as they possibly could.

Honest Hombre
1 pp · humor; western-frontier

When a smooth-talking crook named Ban Foney campaigns for mayor with promises of honest leadership, Mustang Mack isn't buying it—and he's got a sharp tongue ready to cut through the campaign bluster. This quick Western humor piece captures the classic frontier showdown between a con artist and a young heckler who won't let the wool be pulled over the town's eyes.

The Escape
7 pp · western-frontier

When Lash Larue attends a masquerade ball in Dover Valley wearing a borrowed prison costume, he stumbles onto a genuine jailbreak—and finds himself mistaken for an escaped convict by the very criminals he's trying to catch. Forced to play along to gather evidence against the gang's ringleader, Slick Carlson, Lash must outwit the criminals before his cover is blown and the situation spirals into violence. It's a high-stakes game of deception where one wrong move could turn the tables on the roving marshal.

Wallet Whacky
1 pp · humor; western-frontier

When Loco Lew desperately needs to borrow a dollar from a broke friend, he's shocked to learn where that last dollar went—straight into buying the wallet meant to hold it. It's a perfectly ridiculous frontier mix-up that proves sometimes the best-laid plans of a westerner go hilariously sideways.

The Circus Train Calamity
7 pp · western-frontier

When a washed-out railroad bridge threatens an oncoming circus train, Lash La Rue makes a death-defying leap across a raging chasm to warn the engineer—only to trigger a chain of disasters that frees a hungry lion from its cage. Now the roving marshal must track the escaped beast through a raging storm, corner it in a barn where an innocent rancher is trapped, and use nothing but a bullwhip and nerve to drive the vicious animal back into captivity before it claims more lives.
