Cheyenne Kid #32

The Cheyenne Kid makes a desperate leap onto the Missouri Belle, a riverboat racing downriver, to warn Captain Tompkins of a pirate ambush waiting at Rock Bend—complete with sunken logs meant to cripple the ship. When the Captain initially dismisses his story, Cheyenne takes matters into his own hands, rallying a crew to eliminate the river pirates and clear the snags before sunrise. But the real danger lurks aboard: a passenger named St. John Milray, a junior partner in the Golanda Company, is orchestrating the attack to steal four hundred pounds of gold hidden in the Captain's cabin, and he won't go down without a fight.

A half-starved prospector stumbles into a remote cabin during a brutal North Dakota blizzard, only to find it already occupied by a fierce wolf—and the two must learn to survive together through the harsh winter. As weeks pass and spring finally approaches, an unlikely bond forms between man and beast, forcing them both to reckon with what it means to be enemies when survival is at stake.

Cheyenne Kid, an army scout caught between two worlds, rides to confront his childhood blood-brother Stone Deer, a renegade warrior whose ambition to lead the Cheyenne into war threatens to spark a devastating conflict. When diplomacy fails, the two men face off in a brutal combat tied together at the wrists, perched high above the raging Colorado River—a fight where only one can emerge victorious. This tense 1962 western pits loyalty against duty as the Cheyenne Kid struggles to stop a war he knows will cost both red and white lives.
