About this book

A newspaper reports Jim Bailey dead just when the young bookkeeper is running out of money and facing the loss of his room. The mistake follows an accident involving a man wearing Jim's borrowed clothes and watch. A letter intended for his roommate offers travel to Pinnacle City, Arizona, with instructions to use another name. Jim takes the chance, arriving in the West as Jim Meade.

W. C. Tuttle combines this tangle of identities with ranch life, an inheritance mystery and the discomforts of a city man's introduction to Arizona. Jim meets Mary Deal on the stage route, while a later encounter near a branding fire turns into a dangerous flight through the brush. Dry exchanges about his mishaps give the suspense a comic edge.
