Sticky Ropes and Other Tales from the Pulps

By W C Tuttle

W.C. Tuttle was one of the great pulp Western storytellers, known for mixing frontier action, mystery, dry humor, and colorful cowboy speech.

In "Sticky Ropes," newly elected sheriff Dusty Corbett faces a secret gang whose strange calling card spreads fear across Big Bear County. "The Loom of Lies" brings more tangled motives, sharp talk, and trouble on the range. In "Peace Medicine," Tuttle adds another lively Western tale of danger, bluff, and hard choices.

First published in Adventure in 1923 and 1924, these three novellas show Tuttle at home in the fast-moving world of the pulp magazines.
