Cody of the Pony Express #8

Young Bill Cody rides hard for the Pony Express, racing to warn Fort Adams of an ambushed wagon train while outlaw bullets and Indian attacks dog the frontier mail routes. When the cavalry assigns Lieutenant Jim Archer to Graham's Corners to hunt down the outlaw ring terrorizing the territory, he and old Doc Laramie join forces with Cody to track the raiders—but each new ambush reveals just how deep the trouble runs.

Young Bill Cody and his allies Jim Archer and Linda find themselves caught between dueling dangers: outlaws who've stolen army rifles meant for an Indian tribe, and the mounting tension that threatens to spark conflict between settlers and Native Americans. When a ruthless scheme to pit the two sides against each other comes to a head, Bill must race against time to prevent a catastrophe while the stolen weapons hang in the balance. This chapter packs stagecoach chases, dynamite ambushes, and a tense negotiation with Chief Grey Cloud—all building to a perilous showdown in the mountain passes.

Bill Cody and Jim Archer track down an outlaw who shot an Indian brave, using a dropped tobacco pouch as their only clue—but when they capture the suspect and lock him away, the man's ruthless gang makes a desperate move to silence him for good. With the outlaw problem escalating into a full siege at a relay station, Cody must fight through outlaws and Indians alike to deliver the mail and protect those depending on him.
