The Meddler
By Tuttle, W. C.
A hard-boiled Western mystery unfolds in Stormy River County when a cowboy’s meddling uncovers a brutal murder. With tensions simmering between rival ranches and a fortune missing, Sheriff Pat Lynch and his hapless deputy must navigate a web of secrets, poker-night quarrels, and frontier justice before the killer strikes again. W. C. Tuttle’s classic tale blends sharp wit, gritty suspense, and the raw lawlessness of the Old West.
