In “Cañon Walls” by Zane Grey, Smoke Bellew enters a remote Mormon settlement only a jump ahead of a posse. Working as a ranch hand for a Mormon woman, Smoke makes her ranch a financial success, while also falling in love with her wanton daughter. But it is too good to last. The law follows him. “Black Sheep” by Max Brand, finds young Mary Valentine—upstart, tomboy, and general troublemaker—protecting a man wanted by the law. Then her two cousins, who have been dodging the law, return home but decide to join a gang in a bank holdup. In “The Sixth Shotgun” by Louis L’Amour, Leo Carver is about to be hung. The only problem is that a lot of folks are indebted to Leo for one thing or another.
