"When Hardigan rode into Tucson, Arizona, he was surprised to receive an unusual proposition from a most unusual young woman. Hardigan was no one's fool. He could look at a situation straight-on without so much as flinching. But he had never met anyone like Wendy Eldridge before. She was strong-willed, cunning as a fox, and could manipulate people as if they were puppets. Because of debts run up by her father before his death, Wendy's ranch was heavily mortgaged to a banker and three other local men. With Hardigan's help, she hoped to get out of debt by persuading her creditors to buy pieces of a map which, she told them, showed where a hidden gold mine was. In truth, there was a gold mine, and she did know where it was - sort of. But the treasure hunt turns out to be a death trap. Would Wendy's craftiness or Hardigan's expertise with a gun be enough to save them?"--
