Revisit the wild, wild west during a time when unwritten rules of conduct for survival were never formal but respected everywhere on the range in this collection of ten, rollicking short stories, including: "Dangerous Ground": The town marshal quits his job yet he's reluctant to leave town once he hears about the mayor's plot to steal $200,000 in gold. "Out of the Desert": Undercover Deputy U.S. Marshal Dan Boone correctly suspects a banker's plot to steal a gold shipment... "The Hero of Lost Creek": A crippled horse breaker turns hero when he foils cattle rustlers and wins the heart of the boss's daughter. "The Trail to Nowhere": With Indians hot on his heels, a naked trapper and former schoolteacher runs into the forest in the dead of winter and uses little more than ingenuity to thwart his enemies and get all his stuff back. "Quickdraw": Using a special arm harness and pieces of an old corset, Walker shoots it out with the town bully... "Square-Toed Boots": In a cow town, his farmer's boots appear to make him fair game but, when four cowboys dare to insult his wife, they're about to get a lesson in good manners. "Come Morning": At twelve, Sean Mixus can handle a Sharps .50 rifle like nobody's business but putting up with a bath at his sister's house every day forces him to consider O'Reilly and the trail herd as his best escape. "Gold is Where You Find It": Marcus and Saul swindle a greedy banker into buying a worthless gold mine, leave town, and they're living in what they believe is the lap of luxury when they read about a gold strike--right where their false map sent the banker! "Mad Dog Muncie": Two scoundrels at Fort Clark have been cheating folks and selling boys into slavery...but then Mad Dog Muncie appears to right a few wrongs. "Curley's Kids": Curley Samson is a lone trapper until he rescues two orphan kids and a pretty young woman and finds himself rescued from a life of loneliness in the process.

Sending Josh Holt and his friends home to Daddy tied backward on their horses might seem a cruel thing to do, but fast-thinking Deputy U.S. Marshal Stan Hankins figures it's better than sending them home dead. Hankins and his partner Chico Wrath find and arrest outlaws who've fled to Indian Territory in the 1870s to escape the law. Sure-as-shooting it's a dangerous job that doesn't pay very well. Still, at the end of the day, it beats farming!

Just who is the quiet warehouse worker named Bill Harmony? Disturbed by the shallow sermons and self-aggrandising showmanship of his pastor, Bill confronts Doctor Littlehope privately only to be brushed off as an ignorant layman. An upcoming revival event at the church run by a TV evangelist who claims he can heal and raise people from the dead raises even more red flags. Certain this isn't the hand of God at work, Bill and his friends set about exposing the scam. But there's more to Bill than meets the eye, and when locals begin revealing the miraculous works he's performed quietly, far from the spotlight, everyone, including his close friends, begin to ask, "Who is Bill Harmony anyway?"

Download Maelstrom, A Novel of Nazi Germany Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Never underestimate the enemy... Konrad Wengler survived his brush with the death camps of Nazi Germany. Now, reinstated as a police officer in his Bavarian hometown despite being a Jew, he throws himself back into his work, seeking to uncover evidence that will remove a corrupt Nazi party official. The Gestapo have their own agenda and, despite orders from above to eliminate this troublesome Jewish policeman, they hide Konrad in the Totenkopf (Death's Head) Division of the Waffen-SS. In a fight to survive in the snowy wastes of Russia while the tide of war turns against Germany, Konrad experiences tank battles, ghetto clearances, partisans, and death camps (this time as a guard), as well as the fierce battles where his Division is badly outnumbered and on the defence. Through it all, Konrad strives to live by his conscience and resist taking part in the atrocities happening all around him. He still thinks of himself as a policeman, but his desire to bring the corrupt Nazi official to justice seems far removed from his present reality. If he is to find the necessary evidence against his enemy, he must first survive...

Unknown to Konrad, the SS investigators have discovered his origins and follow him into Poland. Arrested and sent to Mauthausen Concentration Camp, Konrad is forced to face what it means to be a Jew and fight for survival. Will his friends on the outside, his wife and lawyer, be enough to counter the might of the Nazi machine?

Which one succeeds will determine the fortunes of their extended family.

Download The Pyramid Builders, Book 3: Khaba Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The third dynasty of the Old Kingdom of Egypt saw an extraordinary development of building techniques, from the simple structures of mud brick at the end of the second dynasty to the towering pyramids of the fourth dynasty. Just how these massive structures were built has long been a matter of conjecture, but history is made up of the lives and actions of individuals; kings and architects, scribes and priests, soldiers and artisans, even common labourers, and so the story of the Pyramid Builders unfolded over the course of more than a century. This is that story… The throne of Egypt has passed to Khaba, an old man who seeks only to secure his family's position. Construction of a pyramid tomb is a secondary consideration, and the fortunes of those who desire to build them languish as he refuses further innovations. It is left to his grandson and heir, Huni, to dream of greater architectural glories. Architect Den has achieved love, but at the cost of ambition. He and his burgeoning family struggle to survive, his relatives seeking out love of their own even as they look for opportunities to further their careers. The promise of a return to fulfilment is offered, but will they be able to grasp it?
