Silver .41
By Tuttle, W. C.
Newly elected sheriff “Skeeter Bill” Sarg is still finding his footing in dusty Moon River County when a government detective brings word of counterfeit silver dollars traced to the valley. With his sharp-tongued deputy Kaintuck Kennedy at his side, Skeeter must navigate cattle-town politics, wary ranchers, old rivalries, and a trail of strange clues that soon turns far darker than bad money. Blending frontier humor, mystery, and hard-edged Western atmosphere, this tale follows an unlikely lawman as he learns that justice on the range often hides in the smallest details.
