Panhandle Trilogy - The Game (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798227509482)

A fun-loving but inept young man is hired as a ranch hand and soon becomes a favorite of the other cowboys. His handsome bearing and carefree spirit capture the attention of the lady who owns the ranch, and his future brightens. This outlook changes when he plays poker with a wolf-like gambler who forces him to back down while other cowboys watch. It is a sensible decision, but it may brand him as a coward-until he undergoes a change of attitude that leads him to a second game of cards.
