Book Description
The Mountain Fugitive by Max Brand is the tale of Lee Porfilo, who is suddenly being framed for the crimes of two wealthy and powerful ranchers. Can Porfilo prove himself innocent, or will his life be paved in blood for the rest of his days? Excerpt: "I was not born upon Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, nor upon Thursday, or Saturday, I presume, because the blessings of those days are mixed; but I came into this world upon a Sunday. I was the only child of a butcher in the town of Mendez, in Arizona. His name was Leon Porfilo, and I was given the same appellation."
