Who Stole the Head of Bobbi DuPree
Greed doesn’t just corrupt men—it reveals who they were all along.
My name is Bobbi DuPree—and this is how I lost my head.
— Bobbi DuPree
Overview
In 1876 Indian Territory, the notorious outlaw Bobbi DuPree is beheaded—his wooden eye rumored to contain the secret location of millions in stolen Confederate gold. As word spreads, a ruthless bounty is placed on his severed head, igniting a violent race across the frontier. A reluctant bounty hunter with a spotless reputation and a fast-talking Confederate drifter form an uneasy alliance, chasing the prize while being hunted themselves. But they’re not alone. A deadly pair of sadistic twins, a zealot priest who kills in God’s name, and a growing army of mercenaries all close in—each more dangerous than the last. As alliances shift and bodies pile up, the hunt becomes less about the gold and more about survival. Because in a land ruled by myth, violence, and greed, the real question isn’t who finds the treasure—it’s who lives long enough to keep it.
