Summary:
"There was something peculiar about Paradise Prairie, south of Pendleton. It was good grassland. But when Kent Durwin went to buy up the old Costain place, where the three Costains had been killed in a Bannock Indian raid, he suspected foul play. And when he dug up the Costains' stuff that the Indians were supposed to have taken with them, he knew he was right. Then Durwin mysteriously disappeared . . . Tony Landers was bound for Pendleton to settle on the Hollister ranch, his Uncle Glenn's place right near the Costains. But he was not especially well received in town. Too many people in Pendelton had too many things to cover up. And somewhere in the Hollister property, no one knew exactly where, there was paradise itself -- $55,000 in hidden booty."-- Provided by publisher.
