The Overland Kid : a western trio

Max Brand
This trio of short novels takes its title from the continuing adventures of Reata, one of Max Brand's most popular characters, who is on the run with three pack horses loaded with gold. Pop Dickerman - from whom he got the stolen gold - has set three men on Reata's trail, and a sheriff's posse is hunting him down for the robbery. Lawman Babe Rourke is known far and wide for his skill with fists and firearms, and Angus Cairn has called out to challenge that reputation. But while waiting for Cairn, Rourke is led by a dog to an injured woman who he takes to "The Cabin in the Pines". In "Joe White's Brand", White and his gang have robbed a bank and are being pursued by a mysterious solitary rider. The tension mounts as, one by one, each member of the gang meets his end ..
