The Cliff Bandits

When Gabby Hayes's attempt to rescue Fred from the cliff dwellings goes sideways, he finds himself trapped with Ellie, young Tippy Ryan, and Fred at the mercy of the outlaw Sidewinder Hogan—who's determined to use his "guests" to solve his mounting problems. Armed with nothing but grease, pebbles, a water basin, and his wits, Gabby must outmaneuver a ruthless criminal and a genuine nest of rattlers to save the day.

Using his keen observation of her strength, Young Falcon works to prove her innocence before the tribal chief, but clearing her name is only the beginning of a larger mystery. Now he must stay with the tribe and hunt down the real thief, knowing that someone strong enough to carry heavy bundles away in silence is still at large.

Time Waits for No Man

None of None

A drifter named Shifty gets drawn into a crooked scheme when a charming stranger offers him easy money, but when violence erupts and an innocent man dies, Shifty's conscience forces him to turn his life around—only to discover that his new path as a lawman puts him face-to-face with his former accomplice, who's counting on their old friendship to keep him safe. Tom Mix watches from the sidelines as Shifty's past and present collide in this tale of redemption tested by temptation.

In "Blackmail," a man haunted by a past crime finds his attempt at redemption shattered when the very murderer he helped escape returns with a threat: expose him or face the consequences.
