Dead Ringer: A Sam Colder Adult Western

Sam Colder arrives in the little stage stop town of Sotol, in Arizona Territory to meet an outlaw — a dapper hired gun, known as The Owl, is arriving on the stage from San Francisco. Collecting the bounty on him is supposed to be a simple affair.

Dangerous, as the man is deadly. But the outcome will be clear cut.

The unhappy wife of the local sheriff who also runs the boarding house sees Sam as a possible solution to the problems in her life. He is someone who can get her out of a jam, and possibly add some excitement to her dull life.

When the owner of a cathouse in neighboring Cochise arrives, she brings another set of issues for Sam that are compounded when a rider comes in that Sam at first takes to be the ruthless outlaw Wade Freeman. It isn’t Wade, but the man is a dead ringer for outlaw — a man shot a while back and thought, hoped, was dead.

Wade isn’t dead. He’s alive and living in Cochise.

Now Sam faces confusion and enemies on several fronts. If things go well, he’ll reap the reward of collecting two bounties. But he has a lot to deal with before that can happen. And he has to start by taking down The Owl.

Another action-packed Sam Colder adult western.
