    About this ebook

    ‘You led me into a trap, my friend,’ Murdoch says addressing the bleeding man. ‘You knew damn well that I was almost certain to be killed. I must admit that, for a while there, I was convinced that the old man was on the level. That is until he led me into the Sienna Padré Mountains...'

    There are rumours of gold in the Sienna Padre mountains. Is it the truth or just stories from desperate goldseekers? Murdoch sets out to find out. One thing he is sure of, is that those hills are full of banditos.
    This satirical story is written in the tradition of B-Grade stories, complete with all the stereotypes, creativity and effects – flaws and all.
    The characters are purely fictitious. Any similarities with any person, living or dead, is entirely coincidental.
    The story is not meant to offend. If you feel offended, please don’t download it, or delete it from your system.
