Louis Rigsbee
Louis Rigsbee has been writing westerns since 1996. Born in Wichita, Kansas, Rigsbee later spent six years in the Arizona desert. An avid reader of Louis L’Amour, not surprisingly, some of his style spills into Rigsbee’s westerns. Rigsbee published “Fool’s Gold” in 1996, and in 1999 placed 2nd HM in the Westward Ho award of the Arkansas Writers' Conference with “Nightriders of the Double Spur.” Writing short western stories for the zine “DEAR TALES,” Rigsbee compiled a collection in “Horse Opera” in 1996. Always working on something, Rigsbee’s next western “Blood Red” will be out in 2012.

- Fool's Gold

When Luke Catlin came to Arizona Territory to help his cousin search for gold, he didn’t know the Apache were on the warpath. It didn’t take him long to find out.
After the murder of his cousin, all he wanted was enough money to get back to Pennsylvania. But a Lipan Apache Indian and a pretty girl had other ideas. They were about to teach him something more about the Apache – something he wasn’t sure he wanted to know.

Tom Grigsby rode into Clay Creek looking for answers but he wasn't getting much cooperation. The Double Spur accused the Tripple B of rustling and the Triple B was hiring gunmen. But the ranch losing the most cattle to rustlers was the Triple B. Somebody had to do something or the entire valley was going to be involved in a range war.
Grigsby had seen too much fighting. He was ready to hang up his gun - but he owed a debt to the Double Spur. He had a hunch who was doing the rustling, but what he needed was hard facts. He knew only one way to get them, so he strapped on his gun and headed out into the night.
