The Fight for San Bernardo

A Borderlands Western Mystery

De: Jack Curtis

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

The boy’s dying curse was meant for Sam Benbow. And it refuses to be forgotten.

After a violent shootout over stolen cattle leaves a young man dead, Sam Benbow is shaken and worn thin by bloodshed. Seeking distance from the killing, he heads west with his aging friend Skofer—hoping to outrun the words spoken with a dying breath.

Instead, Benbow finds himself in San Bernardo, a volatile border town ruled by cruelty, corruption, and fear. As tensions between cultures erupt into open violence, Benbow uncovers the truth behind a set of missing Spanish land deeds—documents that powerful men are willing to kill to keep buried.

Caught between ruthless enforcers and innocent people being driven from their homes, Benbow faces a rare choice. He can walk away and save himself—or stand his ground and fight for the truth.

This time, he draws his Colt not for money, not on orders, but because some injustices can’t be ignored.

A gritty Western mystery of moral choice, frontier violence, and a lawman forced to decide what justice really costs. A complete stand-alone case in the Sam Benbow series.
