Dangerous Trails: A Classic Western Short Story Collection (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798895673409)

Twelve unforgettable Western stories of courage, justice, and survival from Spur Award-winning author John D. Nesbitt, where ordinary people face extraordinary choices across the American frontier.

A cowboy takes on what should have been a simple job. A drifter finds more than he bargained for. A stranger is asked to uncover the truth behind a family's loss. Along the way, familiar trails lead to unexpected dangers, and ordinary people are forced to make extraordinary choices.

In a dozen compelling tales, John D. Nesbitt captures the spirit of the frontier with stories of grit, sacrifice, redemption, and resilience. From lonely ranches and windswept prairies to rough-edged towns where justice is never certain, each story explores the choices people make when tested by hardship and the strength it takes to endure.

This collection includes the acclaimed "Return to Laurel," a finalist for both the Western Writers of America Spur Award and the Western Fictioneers Peacemaker Award for Best Short Fiction.
