james_davis_nicoll When the Man Comes, Follow Him (Ralph Bates)
Following the cryptic clues left by a dying man, four gangsters venture into an unforgiving desert in search of the Lost Dutchman Mine. Nature is bad enough but worse is simple human greed and the inability of people to trust each other.
I am pretty sure if I was dying of a gunshot wound, I wouldn't manage to get out such a long list of clues so coherently.
There's a certain Jack London element to some of this.
