Thanks to the help of numerous hangman’s assistants and of a dense network of spies, barricaded mainly in Hermosillo, El Rey controls the Sonora! And Captain Vasquez is also on his payroll: El Rey dreams of overthrowing all of Mexico. But the plan crumbles thanks to the pards and to those honest soldiers who refuse to be bought. Tex and Carson, having overcome the natural and human defenses of the castle on Tiburòn Island, El Rey’s den, force the little dictator into a precipitous escape, which has its tragic conclusion in the jaws of the sharks of the Pacific. Meanwhile, Butch Cassidy’s Wild Bunch is spreading panic in the Far West...
