Buffalo Bill's Best Bet; Or, A Sure Thing Well Won

The legendary Buffalo Bill rides into an emigrant camp just in time to stop a forced marriage. Mary Hale, daughter of Judge Hale, is about to wed Kent King, a charming but dangerous gambler who has guided their train west. What seems like a simple romance is revealed as something more sinister, and Buffalo Bill must use all his frontier cunning to outwit a man as deadly with a pistol as he is smooth with words. The novel pulses with the moral clarity of classic dime fiction: honor versus deception, the righteous hero versus the charming villain, and the question of what a man will risk to protect the innocent. Ingraham, who wrote over 600 Western novels, delivers pure adrenaline entertainment. This is the American frontier at its most mythic: a world where a single man on horseback can change the course of a young woman's fate, where gunfights decide more than arguments, and where legends are made in the space between sunset and dawn. Perfect for readers who want to disappear into a world of simple justice and high adventure.
