Description

This collection gathers classic crime stories featuring danger, deception, and hard-edged justice in the rugged settings that define Louis L’Amour’s suspense fiction. In the title story, Monte survives a devastating fire only to suffer a head wound and find himself suspected of the very crime he is trying to explain—forcing him to clear his name while the truth remains elusive. Written with vivid atmosphere, brisk pacing, and an unmistakable Western sensibility, these tales explore survival, suspicion, courage, and the thin line between victim and suspect. Originally published in the late 1940s and collected in this 1983 volume, they showcase L’Amour’s range beyond the traditional Western.
