Summary

"Hashknife Hartley, cowpuncher and amateur detective, and his partner, Sleepy Stevens, had faced some tough propositions in their day, but none had been quite so ticklish as the gold robberies at the Comanche Chief Mine at Painted Wells, Arizona. When Hashknife and Sleepy were asked by the Cattlemen's Association of Arizona to go and investigate the robberies, they had no idea what they were walking into. Another investigator had already been sent to the mine and was found dead there. Then the owner of the mine was murdered and his son-in-law sat in a jail cell, accused of the crime. The bodies were piling up and Hashknife and Sleepy had their hands full figuring out the twisted tale of Painted Wells. W. C. Tuttle, true Westerner from the Montana ranges, had been steeped in the lore of cowpunching from earliest youth. In Hashknife and Sleepy he created the Western counterparts of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, and in all of his novels he caught the wild and racy tang of the country he knew and loved."--, Provided by publisher
