Fate of The Wolf
By Tuttle, W. C.
In the lawless Mexican borderland, the bandit known as El Lobo has transformed from folk hero to merciless killer, and Don Roberto Aliso's fortified rancho stands as his next target. When the laughing stranger Destino rides into Santa Clemente claiming to hunt The Wolf, the desperate rancher hires him as a guard—unaware that this mysterious gunfighter harbors secrets that could doom or save them all. As threats mount and betrayal festers within the walls, Destino must choose between vengeance and an unexpected love that awakens in the shadow of danger. From the author of adventure classics comes a tale of honor, deception, and deadly reckoning in the Old West.
