Tex Willer LU #214: Ljudski plijen
Accused of murder, Sheriff Jerry Norton flees a band of bounty hunters. Tex believes his friend is innocent and must find him before they do.
Human Prey concludes the manhunt that began in The Indian Sheriff. Jerry Norton, the sheriff of Greystroke and an old friend of Tex, has been accused of murdering Rita Kent. He spent years earning the townspeople’s trust, and now he has to run for his life. The bounty attracts men more interested in getting paid than in finding out who committed the crime.
Tex is convinced Norton is innocent. To help him, he must reach him before the bounty hunters do and find out what really happened to Rita Kent. The chase moves from town into rough country, where Norton has little chance of finding a safe refuge. As the hunters close in, Tex has less and less time to clear his friend’s name.
Tito Faraci builds the conclusion around a reversal: the man who once enforced the law is now the one being hunted. The Cestaro brothers draw the pursuit through an unforgiving landscape toward a shootout that will decide whether Norton gets a chance to answer the charge.
