by W. C. Tuttle
In the rain-slick streets of San Francisco, wandering cowpunchers Hashknife Hartley and Sleepy Stevens are hired to investigate a deadly mystery in Wyoming’s Ghost Hills. At the troubled Circle Cross ranch, cattle vanish without a trace, detectives turn up dead, and fear of the so-called phantom riders grips the range. Amid rustling, suspicion, racial prejudice, and a murder trial that divides the town of Wolf Wells, two sharp-witted drifters must follow a trail no one else dares to ride.
