"The year is 1868, in the remote hill country near San Antonio, Texas. Nineteen-year-old Benjamin Shreve, an unassuming woodworker, spends most of his time in his workshop, minding his business. One day, however, after a stagecoach passenger is stranded, Benjamin agrees to help the man catch up to the stagecoach that holds all his worldly possessions. Thus begins the unexpected adventure of a lifetime, for when they reach the stagecoach, Benjamin meets its other two other passengers: Nell, a pregnant young woman, and her four-year-old son, Tot, whose wide-eyed exuberance immediately speaks to Benjamin's protective impulses. When he learns that mother and son are fleeing men intent on harming them, he agrees to give them passage all the way to the Gulf of Mexico, where they can catch a ferry to safety. The act of chivalry will prove more dangerous than he could have known, as buried secrets -- including a cursed necklace and the emperor of Mexico -- rise to the surface. Even as Benjamin falls deeply in love with Nell and imagines a life as Tot's father, Nell's violent pursuers are hot on their trail, leading to a conclusion whose pulsing drama is matched only by its beauty and poignancy. Written in the form of a letter from Benjamin to Tot after the events of the novel have settled, The Madstone delivers one of the most beloved and endearing narrators you will ever encounter, in the unforgettable story of three characters who forge a love that will seal them into each other's hearts forever"--

The blood of innocents / by Lynch, Sean.;
As both a former Confederate guerilla and Texas Ranger, and now a U.S. marshal, no one knows the dangers of the frontier and cowtowns like Marshal Samuel Pritchard. A couple of wagon trains traveling the Oregon Trail have vanished and Pritchard's got miles of bad road across hostile territory to investigate. But he must also reckon with a price on his head. Bounty hunter Captain Laird Bonner is the greatest manhunter throughout the west--and he's as ruthless as he's relentless in pursuing his prey. Then the trail for both Pritchard and Bonner ends in an Idaho mining town named Whiskey Falls. Ruled by a man who earned his stripes in Andersonville, the town is a literal hell for everyone who lives there, slaving and dying to satiate their captor's lustful greed. To escape, Pritchard and Bonner must declare an uneasy truce and take on an army of gunmen. This is the story of Samuel Pritchard.

Three-Time World Champ The Death-Defying True Story of a Kickboxer Turned Drug Smuggler . . . Turned Bu siness Icon [electronic resource] : by Pryor, Ted.aut; cloudLibrary;
The thrilling true story of the rise and fall of a kickboxing legend in the notorious 1980s Miami crime scene . . . and the shocking end that that led him to a new life. From 1982 to 1987, Thaddeus J. “Ted” Pryor was the middleweight kickboxing champion of the world. But behind the scenes, he was a key player in the biggest marijuana trafficking operation in American history. As a renowned athlete, TV model, and bodyguard to stars like Elvis Presley, he drew the attention of the head of the Miami mafia. When the kingpin wanted protection—and some flash—he made Ted his personal intimidator, keeping the peace in the celebrity-drenched nightclub scene and beyond.  But when the gangster blocked him from getting in on the big money of the smuggling business, Ted started his own.  Three-Time World Champ tells the electric story of how Ted became the master of the run-and-gun smuggling business around the Caribbean islands, hustling in hundreds of millions of dollars in weed under the noses of cops and coast guard patrols—until a dubious traffic stop began the unraveling of everything. What began as easy money became a ringside seat to kidnapping, murder, police double-crosses, and a harrowing turn in prison.  Three-Time World Champ brings readers directly into the action of neon-soaked, 1980s Miami, chronicling the rise and fall—and rise again—of an amazing man: a world champ of kickboxing and a world champ of smuggling who, in a wholly unexpected turn, becomes world champ of a business completely removed from everything that came before. It’s harrowing, it’s thrilling, and it happened just like this: the wild life of a Three-Time World Champ.

The bullet stops here / by Johnstone, William W.,author.; Johnstone, J. A.,author.;
"Someone is terrorizing the Arizona border. Burning down ranches. Butchering travellers. Blazing a trail of bloodthirsty raids and robbing the railroads blind. His name is Melichus. A ruthless outlaw with a mile-long record of cruelties and crimes, he's the most wanted man in the territory. And the massive price on his head has attracted the attention of every trigger-happy, would-be bounty hunter this side of the Rio Grande. But Luke Jensen knows something they don't -- The bigger the bounty, the deadlier the prey. Against his better judgment, Luke accepts an offer from the Great Southern Railroad to lead a posse of hired guns to stop Melichus in his tracks. Problem is, the gunmen are untrained, undisciplined, and unruly. To make matters worse, a meddlesome pair of Pinkertons are along for the ride, too. But the real trouble starts when their team gets caught in a three-sided gunfight with an Apache war party and the Mexican Army. It's fast becoming the bloodiest manhunt Luke's ever seen -- and the final showdown could be his last."--
