Kid Rodelo - by Louis L'Amour (Paperback)

About the Book

Harbin was the gunslinger. All he wanted was the gold. Badger was just a little weasel, waiting to see where the chips fell. Nora was an orphan, searching for news of her lost parents. But Kid Rodelo? He was the mystery man--the only man who could save his companions.

Book Synopsis

Joe Harbin hadn't killed a man for a fortune in gold just to sit in prison and let Rodelo collect it. But when he and his men break out and head for the stash, they end up with a pair of unwelcome partners: Rodelo and a beautiful woman with a hidden past. To get fifty thousand dollars in gold across fifty miles of desert, the desperate band quickly learns how much they need each other---and how deep their greed and suspicion can run. At the end of the journey lie the waters of Baja and a new life in Mexico, but first they have to survive the savage heat, bounty-hunting Yaqui Indians, and the shifting, treacherous nature of both the desert sands and their own conflicting loyalties.
