Desert Gold
A border town like Casita is no place for a drifter—especially a rich man's son looking for adventure. From the moment Dick Gale steps into this stinking, sun-baked hellhole of gambling and corruption, revolution, and revenge, he gets more than he bargained for. His old friend Thorne is in love with a beautiful señorita who's been targeted by the Mexican rebel Rojas. A bold, sneering devil of a man, feared, envied, and idolized by his people, Rojas spends gold like he spills blood—and collects women like trinkets. Gale knows that defying such a man could be suicide. Defeating him is his only chance to survive—in a brutal one-on-one battle on the parched desert cliffs. . .
Man to man. Hunter and hunted. To the death. . .

- bioText: Born Pearl Zane Gray in Zanesville, Ohio, Zane Grey is noted for his careful research and accurate portrayal of the American West. Though Grey trained as a dentist, he turned to writing as a career in 1904, when his first book was published. He went on to write more than 50 novels, most of them tales of adventure with a Western setting, including The Last of the Plainsmen (1908), Riders of the Purple Sage (1912), The Thundering Herd (1925), Code of the West (1934), and West of the Pecos (1937). His nonfiction works include Tales of Fishing (1925). Many of Grey's novels continue to be extremely popular, and several have been adapted into motion pictures.
