In "Gold in the Red Desert," T. H. Bear introduces us to Reb Brown, a returning POW from the Federal Prison in Point Lookout Maryland. Within months of his homecoming he is falsely charged with a capital crime and must flee his home state just ahead of a lynch-man's posse. The Owl Hoot Trail leads him from a murder committed among the cypress and sweet gum trees of South Georgia to a murder committed among the sage brush and prickly pear on the Red Desert of central Wyoming, at a time when the cry of 'Gold' was raging throughout the Sweetwater Region. By witnessing the back shooting of Bob Scoggins, on a lonely night in the middle of nowhere, he is swept into a fury of dangers and adventures in which he never shucks a task, rather with his Colt and Yellowboy in hand, he meets challenge after challenge face to face. Indian Fights, Claim Jumpers, Bank Robbers, Stage Hold-ups, Gunfights, are but nuisance and interruptions to the romancing of the beautiful women that cross's his path in his endeavor to right this wrong and see that the true offenders are made to pay for their crimes. Adventures and interruptions you too will enjoy, as you ride with Reb Brown on 'The Owl Hoot Trail'.
