Having escaped the clutches of the evil Puppet Master, Charlie joins Wild Bob France’s gang, the Daredevil Desperados of Destiny, whose sole aim is to get rid of the outrageous outlaw Horatio Ham and his band of hired gunslingers. Charlie, aka the Lariat Kid, brings down Ham’s posse of gunslingers, takes part in a daring bank raid, is caught up in a ferocious gunfight, lands up in jail, and is about to be sacrificed to the Great Bird of Death.

Will Charlie escape? Will Ham be defeated? Only by reading Charlie’s extraordinary diaries will you find out!
