Sun Dog loot by W. C. Tuttle
"Sun Dog Loot" by W. C. Tuttle is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in a rugged frontier town, focusing on Sheriff Brick Davidson, whose competence is put to the test as a wave of robberies plagues Sun Dog County. The opening portion introduces readers to Brick and his colleagues, including his deputy Harp Harris, as they confront the challenges of law enforcement in a lawless
environment dominated by crime. The beginning of "Sun Dog Loot" establishes a tense atmosphere as Brick Davidson grapples with recent high-profile crimes, including a dangerous bank robbery and a stagecoach hold-up. Brick's interactions with the county commissioners highlight the pressure he faces regarding his re-election amid rising crime rates. The narrative is peppered with humor and camaraderie among the characters, especially during exchanges with the quirky Harp and the jocular Silent Slade. As the plot unfolds, Brick's responsibilities intensify further when he must confront both external threats and political machinations while a professional investigator is brought in to assist with the case. The sense of urgency escalates dramatically upon the tragic wreck of a stagecoach, setting the stage for a gripping story filled with intrigue and peril. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
