The forgotten frontier [graphic novel] / by Jones, Tristan,author.; Bumbulut, Alexander,illustrator.;
The Western Frontier is arguably one of the most widely misrepresented histories, rife with inaccuracies and stereotypes. Author Tristan Jones reimagines a historical retelling of the Frontier through the lens of Truth and Reconciliation. With a focus on the historically missing Indigenous narrative, Jones manages the enormous feat of creating a link to the past while imagining a path forward for the future. Lavishly illustrated by master sequential artist Alexander Bumbulut, this new title is poised to revolutionize the graphic novel medium.

Shades of mercy / by Borgos, Bruce,author.;
"In the usually quiet high desert of Nevada, Sheriff Porter Beck faces one of his greatest challenges-a series of unlikely, disturbing and increasingly deadly events of unknown origins. Porter Beck is the sheriff in the high desert of Nevada, doing the same lawman's job his father once did now that he's returned home after decades away. With his twelve person department, they cover a large area that is usually very quiet, but not of late. One childhood friend is the latest to succumb to a new wave of particularly strong illegal opioids, another childhood friend-now an enormously successful rancher-is targeted by a military drone, hacked and commandeered by an unknown source. The hacker is apparently local-local enough to call out Beck by name-and that means they are Beck's problem. Beck's investigation leads him to Mercy Vaughn, the one known hacker in the area. The problem is that she's a teenager, locked up with no computer access at the secure juvenile detention center. But there's something Mercy that doesn't sit quite right with Beck. But when Mercy disappears, Beck understands that she's in danger and time is running out for all of them"--

Black Ice / by King, Thomas,1943-author.;
"Thumps DreadfulWater has a lot on his plate. With Duke out of commission following his wife's tragic death, Thumps is appointed temporary deputy sheriff, a role that makes him doubly eager for Duke's swift recovery. First, a myopic private investigator dies while in custody. The autopsy concludes that he died of natural causes; then an assault rifle is found in the trunk of the dead man's rental car, and the mystery woman he was investigating disappears. Meanwhile, Thumps contends with a couple of horse-thieving octogenarians and a large, slobbery dog acquired in the line of duty. As the rest of Chinook comes together to cheer on golf novice Wutty Youngbeaver, who is competing in the US Open qualifying tournament up at Shadow Ranch, Claire and Ivory decamp to Alberta, leaving Thumps to contemplate the simplicity of a life lived alone. If he can't manage something as simple as a dog or a couple of cats, how can he be responsible for another human being? Two human beings? The plot thickens when ninja assassin Cisco Cruz returns to Chinook, and Thumps finds himself knee-deep in a complicated web of deceit spun by a nefarious collective known as Black Ice. His job? To sort through the lies. It's like a game of Jenga, where the blocks need to be removed carefully, one by one, or the whole structure will topple."--
