Bob Steele #6

A young man claiming to be the long-lost heir to the Circle-O ranch reunites with the Sloan family after sixteen years, but Bob Steele's instincts tell him something's dangerously wrong with the boy and his shady companion. When trouble erupts at the ranch, Bob must uncover the truth behind the mysterious return before ruthless opportunists use the lost heir as cover for something far more sinister.

When Bob Steele stops for a rest at a stream, a desperate outlaw named Trig Dawson swaps clothes with him to evade a pursuing posse—leaving Bob to take the heat. Mistaken for the notorious killer and drawn into a criminal scheme involving a crooked banker's stolen fortune, Bob must outwit a gang of ruthless gunmen while uncovering the truth before the real Trig Dawson arrives to settle accounts. It's a tense game of deception and quick draws across the frontier.

Glib Gibbons brings an unconventional solution to a very modern problem: an alarm clock that he's grown too accustomed to hearing. When his boss questions why he traded the clock for a parrot, Glib explains his clever workaround—one that relies on the bird's particularly vocal response to the morning bells. It's a funny bit of backwoods logic that proves sometimes the noisiest answer is the right one.
