Heritage of the Plains by Fran Striker "Shortly after twilight, a spreading have stole over the plains and concealed the peeping stars. Darkness hung thick and heavy. Moist fog swirled in little eddies behind the solitary rider heading north from Osage and the town's adobe jail. Not used to long saddle stretches, Bart Hempstead was weary in body and low in spirit. He felt the whole world had turned against him; he was humiliated and ashamed. In fifty years of honest living, the square-jawed hard muscled engineer had never known the helplessness of capture by the law." So starts another great adventure of the Lone Ranger, as he and his friend Tonto investigate a murder and the interruption of a bridge being built.
