Clay Nash 23: Wild Ride From Spanish Springs
When is a stage hold-up not a stage hold-up?
It was a question Wells Fargo’s top detective, Clay Nash, had to wrestle with.
The only answer he could come up with was that the hold-up was just cover for something else. But what? The murder of a, inoffensive little Mexican carrying a bag full of documents?
As unlikely as it sounded, it was the only thing that made sense. But to confirm his suspicion, Clay had to track down the robbers … and that was easier said than done.
He thought they might have signed on with a trail crew pushing a herd of cattle to the town of Freedom. So Clay went undercover and joined the drive.
Now all he had to do was identify the outlaws … and discover why the little Mexican had to die!
