The name Max Brand is synonymous with great adventure and quality. Good men gone bad fill the pages of this Western trio, with stories of outlaws, horse thieves and a rowdy ranch hand who turns to stage robbery. This book contains three short novelettes: „The Nighthawk Trail", „Vamp's Bandit" and the title story, „Rifle Pass". In „Rifle Pass", ageing Sheriff Thomas Weller has one major problem: his son Dick Weller. Dick cannot seem to apply himself to anything. In a desperate attempt to have Dick's courage tested, the sheriff deputizes his son and charges him with the capture of Harry Sanford. „Rifle Pass" is another outstanding collection that demands your attention!
