Tex Willer LU #164: Golden Arrow

In Golden Arrow, Tex Willer and his companions help Jim Brandon escape from the penitentiary near Lake Athabasca. The Canadian Mounted Police colonel is out of prison, but the conviction that cost him his position and his freedom still stands. To clear his name, Tex and the others head for Ottawa, where they must expose the plot Brandon had been close to uncovering.

In the Canadian capital, Senator Sidney and Major Fielding, the men behind the conspiracy, are planning to get rid of Brandon and his allies. Their positions give them an advantage: the law now treats Brandon as a fugitive, while the men who framed him still hold public office.

In this third instalment, Claudio Nizzi and Fernando Fusco shift the action from the prison break to the journey towards Ottawa. Tex must help his friend get a chance to prove his innocence before the conspirators silence him. The story concludes in the next issue, originally titled Posto di blocco.
