Originally published in 1936.
Sheriff Dan Stuart faces the problem of preventing a range war between the cattle barons of Cibecue and the invading sheepmen with grim determination and his twin six-shooters. At the very first there is what appears to be a double murder. Stuart believes both men were killed by the same man, but it doesn't make sense because one was a sheepman and the other a cattleman. Both sides are raring for a scrap and Stuart soon realizes that he must not only fight the two factions in order to keep peace, but solve a mystery as well.
