The House of Gold

Max Brand was able to breathe life into his Western characters, and perhaps none was more exciting than James Geraldi, the "honest thief" who stole only from other thieves. In this trio of tales, Geraldi has some of his greatest adventures, including a quest for the elusive Golden Horus, a gold statue inlaid with four perfect emeralds and a large, flawless yellow diamond. But whether he's seeking a treasure, protecting an innocent girl, or handling other thieves who may not be quite so honest, Geraldi is a classic figure of the West. And one whom no reader could forget.
