The Cursed Brand

By I. J. Parnham

The arrival of Jim Dragon and Pierre Dulaine in Monotony gives Sheriff Cassidy Yates plenty of problems when they both claim to be the owner of a wagonload of valuable cargo. Unbeknown to them the wagon also contains a rusty lump of iron, which turns out to be the infamous Bar-Z branding iron, also known as the cursed brand.
Fifteen years ago a fierce range war had raged and the iron had been used to brand its mark into human flesh. Now its presence stirs up old hatreds and it's not long before a body turns up branded. With the tension in town rising Cassidy must expose the culprits before a new, even deadlier conflict erupts.
