Lost Man - Paperback

As Clint rides through Missouri, he sees a group of men, some on horseback, some on foot. They are looking for a lost man, whose wife has reported him missing. They question Clint, but he says he hasn't seen anyone and continues on to town. Over the course of a day or two, Clint talks to people and gets conflicting descriptions of what sounds like several different men, not just one. Curious, he decides to do what he can to find him, and discover who and what the man actually is. Once he starts looking, not everyone is happy about his involvement, and he discovers some would rather kill him than have him succeed.
