520 _a"Splashes of Red" by J. Frank Davis is a crime fiction novel written in the early 20th century. This engaging narrative centers around the world of rodeo performers and the complexities of personal relationships set against a backdrop of rivalry and murder. The story intricately explores themes of love, jealousy, and the challenges of navigating life in a competitive environment. The plot unfolds with the Oklahoma Kid, a star rodeo performer, and his rival, Curly Bratton, who finds himself embroiled in a murder investigation after the death of Jack Marling, a fellow contestant. Amidst the backdrop of the rodeo, Curly is romantically interested in Millie Wayne, but his affections are complicated by the presence of Florrine, a sophisticated city girl. When Marling is found shot in the back, circumstances point to Curly, leading his mentor, Pres Campbell, to believe in his innocence and seek to prove it. The story weaves through misunderstandings, personal conflicts, and the quest for truth amid the chaos of life in the rodeo circuit, culminating in a revelation that showcases the influence of unexpected connections.
