Cold Dead Cash

Narrated by: Chris Abernathy

Johnstone Country. Where the Dead Sleep Cold.

HAVE COFFIN, WILL TRAVEL

On his latest bullion run for the Reverend's Temptation Gold Mine, Shotgun Johnny crosses paths with three desperate strangers. One is an old man. The other is his daughter Dixie. The third is the old man's son, Jake Teal, a bank robber who's wanted dead or alive. Thing is, Jake is already dead—stuffed in a pine box on his family's wagon. Now every bounty hunter in the state is after his body . . .

BRING OUT YOUR DEAD

Johnny feels bad for the grieving family and agrees to escort them to Pueblo for a proper burial. Of course, no good deed goes unpunished. A sudden snow storm turns the trail into a frozen hell—but that doesn't stop the bounty-hunting devils who want to cash in on Jake's corpse. Some of them think Dixie knows where he hid the cash from his last bank job. Or maybe they're really after Johnny's cargo of gold. Either way, they all could end up dead on arrival . . .

Erratic story

There was no continuity in the story. I don’t believe Johnstone actually wrote this. Not good.
