Sam Spur 8: Gun

by Matt Chisholm

Overview

Sam Spur was in trouble—gun-trouble, law-trouble, bandit-trouble … and finally, the worst trouble of all—woman-trouble.
Right at the start he was in a mess and he thought matters couldn’t be worse. But he was wrong. They could be a lot worse. The beautiful girl he didn’t want to marry could be kidnapped, a priceless shipment of gold could be stolen, Spur could find himself out-gunned and in mortal danger. His partners, Cusie Ben and the Cimarron Kid, had their own share of trouble—the Kid shot up; Ben left horseless in desert country. It all ended violently on the Mexican border in a shoot-out with the most vicious organizer of crime in the Arizona Territory.
