Description: "There have always been plenty of rumors about Death Valley.  A poisoned watering hole.  Hostile Indians.  A legendary lost gold mine.  A herd of ghostly golden horses kept by a beautiful woman.  Most people just avoid the place.  But Johnny Lightfoot changes that when he rides into the nearby town of Mormon Lake.  He has an unnaturally fast horse and a gold nugget that matches ore from the lost mine.  Suddenly the race is on to see who will be the first to the riches--and who will be the first to4 see Death Valley live up to its name"--Cover verso.
