In the dust-choked alleys of a lawless frontier town, a single heartbeat separates justice from escape. One Jump Ahead by Ray Humphreys delivers a taut, pulse-pounding tale of pursuit, deception, and grit, as a seasoned lawman launches into a midnight chase that will test his instincts, resolve, and sense of justice. Under the glow of a swinging saloon lamp and the cold gaze of a desert moon, every footfall stirs old secrets and sharpens the stakes. In true pulp Western fashion, the story hurtles forward with clipped dialogue, tight pacing, and characters etched in sweat and suspicion. Humphreys's 1929 short story is a masterclass in frontier noir—where the line between hunter and hunted is drawn in dust, and honor rides hard on the heels of revenge. This audiobook is perfect for listeners who crave rugged heroes, gritty landscapes, and the relentless beat of a man one step from vengeance—or redemption.
