The Mark of Cain and Other Tales from the Pulps

This collection of high-stakes Western action tales is set in the rough frontier boomtown of Silver Butte and beyond. From vigilante threats to crooked saloons and lawless railroad camps, each story delivers hard-boiled heroes and rapid-fire showdowns. In the title story, a mysterious drifter becomes marshal in a town ruled by guns and fear-and one man's stand for justice might cost him everything. With sharply drawn characters and fast-paced plots, these pulp-era adventures bring the untamed American West roaring to life.

Included are:

"The Mark of Cain"
"Bad and Mad"
"The Curse of Drink"
"When East Met West"
"By Order of Buck Brady"
"The Ranch of the Tombstones"
