WANTED!

On the run from a Missouri posse, Jim Thorne headed for Colorado. There he joined up with prospector Eb Graves and in no time the two struck it rich. But Graves stole the young man's share of the gold and left him for dead. Then the oldtimer gathered a band of killers—one of whom assumed Jim's identity—and hit the outlaw trail.

With his face on wanted posters in two states, Jim Thorne lived on the edge, biding his time until he could seek revenge. Only one person, a girl in Cherry Creek, believed in his innocence. Jim would have to prove it to everyone else the hard way!
