No one knew -- or wrote about -- the West like Max Brand, as shown brilliantly in the three classic short novels collected in this volume. Each novel has been carefully restored to Brand's original version, and each is a jewel of Western fiction. In the title novel Reata, one of Brand's most popular heroes, is enlisted to retrieve a hidden treasure in gold -- little knowing that it's stolen goods. In "Sheriff Larrabee's Prisoner" a lawman must lead a posse to track down a murder suspect. But the lawman's own daughter is convinced the man is innocent. "A Shower of Silver" finds an innocent train passenger framed for murder. Whichever side of the law they're on, the unforgettable characters in these tales will fight for what they believe ... and to survive.
