FLAME TRAIL BY MARIZ DE NERVADD SYNOPSIS: Kay Crandon, who runs her own ranch, is stretched out on a mountain ledge when, far below, she spots a man sus- piciously piling brush against a dead pine. She recalls the firebug the county has been hunting and hurries down quietly to ;eatch him. Pulling her gun, she orders him to\“Throw ’em wp!” Desper- ate and defeated, he explains he hoped to get a job fire fighting to buy:food for his mother and sis-;:: ter. Kay believes him when he says it is his first attempt to set a | fire, On impulse, she slips. her, gun back into its holster, Chapter Two Quick Thinking N INCREDULOUS look of sur- prise flashed over the man’s face before he turned it away from her. Then, after a moment’s tense | tai silence, he said, in a muffled voice, still with his back to her, “Why did you do that?” “Because I believe you,” Kay answered, “and perhaps I can help you to find some other way.” With a rush of words, the man’s. story poured out. “They've foreclosed on me,” he explained, “and we've got to get out next week. I've got a blind sis- ter and an invalid mother. I’m not married, thank God!” Kay shud- dered at his bitter tone. “I've sold everything we have, even my gun.
