Sun-Dog Trails
By Tuttle, W. C.
When a runaway team sends their wagon crashing into a stagecoach mid-robbery, cowboys Brick Davidson and Silent Slade stumble into a mystery bigger than a wrecked Schuttler and a dead pinto. A hundred pounds of stolen gold, a masked woman with a steady rifle hand, and a cryptic note found in the road set the pair on a trail that leads straight to the crumbling Weeping Tree ranch—and a name that changes everything. In a county where the sheriff rides to crime scenes in a top-buggy and three hundred voters turn out to be liars, justice may have to come from a different direction entirely. W. C. Tuttle's Sun-Dog Trails is a sharply drawn Western comedy-mystery alive with deadpan wit, colorful characters, and the slow, deliberate justice of men who know better than to show all their cards at once.
