Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
For fifteen years Andrew Lanning's Uncle Jasper had raised him, ever since Andrew's father died. Jasper wanted his nephew to be the kind of man that rightly belonged with the Lanning clan: good with horses, even better with guns. But the results proved disappointing. Andrew was now the mild-mannered town blacksmith. Then one day something happened that changed all that. The belligerent Buck Heath confronted him, and Andrew fought back, a single punch knocking Heath down, probably killing him. Obsessed with feelings of guilt and terror, Andrew fled into the wilderness of the hills and turned outlaw.
Originally published under the name George Owen Baxter as an eight-part serial in Street & Smith's Western story magazine, (1/29/1921-3/19/1921).
Not knowing of his innocence Andrew Lanning becomes an outlaw when he thinks he's killed a man in a fight. He becomes a true outlaw when he kills the deputy sheriff pursing him at the instigation of the wealthy man engaged to the woman Andrew loves.
