Billy the Kid Adventure Magazine #20

When a raging river threatens a stagecoach full of terrified passengers, Billy the Kid risks everything to save them—only to discover they've taken shelter in a supposedly haunted house guarding a prospector's hidden gold. As floodwaters trap everyone inside, Billy must contend with both the rising waters and something far more sinister lurking within the walls of the isolated mansion in "The House in the Flood."

Billy the Kid springs into action when a ruthless gang of outlaws robs a train near town, but every time they flee into the nearby Haunted Cavern, they vanish without a trace—leaving posses and lawmen baffled. Determined to crack the mystery, Billy sets out to track the gang down, only to find himself caught in a deadly trap that tests his quick draw and wits. Will he uncover what's really happening in that cavern before it's too late?

When a false prophet named Yellow Coyote convinces reservation Indians to go on the warpath against white settlers, Billy the Kid must find a way to reach his friend Chief Ten Bears before the tribe marches toward certain slaughter. Forced to prove his loyalty by running the gauntlet, Billy risks everything to show Ten Bears that Yellow Coyote's promises of glory are hollow—but stopping a warpath already in motion will take more than words.

In 1861, Adams and his party learn from a half-breed Apache guide of a remote box canyon rich with placer gold, and after nine days of travel they begin panning the precious metal—finding far more than they'd hoped for. But their celebration proves disastrous when Apache warriors vastly outnumber them and attack, leaving only Adams and a man named Davidson alive and forcing them to flee empty-handed into the desert. A decade later, after the Apache threat has passed, Adams spends the rest of his life searching for the fortune he buried in that canyon, never knowing if the gold still waits undiscovered or if it will remain lost forever.
