Bill BoydMidnight

Bill Boyd springs into action when bushwhackers ambush a freight wagon headed for Pecos Gulch, and he discovers the driver, Johnny Tenant, is racing against both a tornado and ruthless competitors determined to stop him from winning a lucrative mining contract. With the outlaws in pursuit and nature's fury closing in, Boyd and his horse Midnite must guide the wagon over treacherous terrain to reach their destination before the storm strikes. It's a test of grit, sharpshooting, and quick thinking against impossible odds.

Dude Ranch Rascal!
4 pp · humor; western-frontier
Windy

Working at a dude ranch, Windy can't resist spinning tall tales and pulling pranks on the visiting Easterners—especially one gullible tenderfoot who keeps falling for every wild story about gunfights, notoriety, and romance. But when his jokes get too clever for his own good, Windy learns that even a city slicker can deliver a lesson the hard way.

The Oil Well Mystery
5 pp · western-frontier
Bill BoydMidnight

Bill Boyd discovers a murdered man at a burning oil well outside Dry Valley Junction—and realizes the dead man is the local sheriff. Suspecting the well itself is a fake hideout used by criminals, Boyd investigates and uncovers a secret dugout filled with stolen loot, leading to a dangerous confrontation with the two men behind the scheme. With the help of his horse Midnight, Boyd works to bring the culprits to justice and recover the stolen goods.

Some Thinking!
1 pp · humor; western-frontier

Hammerhead worries he'll lose his job at the Double Circle Ranch, but his real problem is that he and his boss think exactly alike—which means they're both dreading the same conversation about his latest mistake. This lighthearted western tale serves up a clever gag about the perils of having a boss who knows you too well.

The Desert Trail
7 pp · western-frontier
Bill BoydMidnight

Bill Boyd pursues an outlaw named Link Bruder across a merciless desert after the criminal bushwhacks him at camp and steals both his horse Midnite and his supplies. With only a borrowed canteen and a sheriff's promise to guide him, Bill must track Bruder through scorching sands where the real enemy isn't bullets—it's thirst—and where survival depends as much on wits as it does on willpower. It's a desperate chase where one mistake means death under the blazing sun.
