By Max Brand

The bounty on gunslinger Charlie Rizdal was high - eight thousand for bringing him in alive and five thousand for his corpse. Jim Pleasant decided he'd take him in alive and collect the eight thousand dollar bounty. But soon after collecting the reward, Jim discovers that Rizdal’s brother, Long Tom, has put a price on his head! Now, Jim is fair game to every outlaw in the territory.
