by W. C. Tuttle
When a seasoned outlaw stumbles upon his twin brother—the sheriff of Oro City—at a remote desert water hole, a tense standoff quickly spirals into a deadly game of identity and deception. With the law's badge now in his possession, the outlaw rides boldly into town to play a role he was never meant to fill, only to discover that nothing about his brother's life is quite what it seemed. W. C. Tuttle's sharp-tongued tale of mistaken identity and frontier irony delivers a twist ending that strikes with the force of a desert sun.
