Renegade roundup

the long version

Burt Craig was riding with the wolves, and he didn't much like the company. He'd joined the bandit gang in the hope of getting back his own stake, and so far all he'd gotten was the chance to ride in another holdup, maybe stop lead, or get hung if he got caught. Who'd ever swallow a story that he'd thrown in with the renegades just to check their workings and recover his own stolen dinero? No one around Cushman, for sure, not when the sheriff was the gang's ringleader!
