Randall Parrish 
The Strange Case of Cavendish 
A Western Murder Mystery

'The Strange Case of Cavendish’ is a storyabout a spirited New York newspaperwoman caught between a shrewd lawyer, dangerous people, and Mexican bandits! The premise is clever and full of intriguing twists and turns.
Excerpt:
'For the second time that night, too, a picture rose before him, a picture of great plains, towering mountains, and open spaces that spoke the freedom and health of outdoor living. He had known that life once before, when he and Jim Westcott had prospected and hit the trail together, and its appeal to him now after three years of shallow sightseeing in the city was deeper than ever. 'Good old Jim, ’ he murmured, 'struck pay-dirt at last only to lose it and he needs me. By George, I think I’ll go.’
