by W. C. Tuttle
On the rugged Big Bear range, newly elected Sheriff Dusty Corbett begins his term with a stolen horse, a public challenge to the feared Sticky Rope gang, and a bullet through his office window. Armed with grit, dry humor, and an unruly sense of justice, Dusty sets out to unmask the shadowy rustlers whose syrup-marked ropes have become a warning across the cattle country. W. C. Tuttle’s Western tale blends frontier mystery, comic bravado, and hard-riding action in a lively portrait of law and disorder on the range.
