Augustus Yarrow is a top lawman, noted for going undercover to ferret out criminals: everyone from bank robbers to corrupt officials. He’s the best of the best…until he winds up dead. Isaac Scott is looking for something better than his life of riding the rails when the man he's sharing a car with is shot. There's money and mysterious papers on the man, who attempts to tell Ike something with his dying breath, right before Ike himself is arrested. When he's mysteriously freed, Ike realizes it’s because the papers declare that he’s Deputy Marshal Yarrow. Ike wants nothing to do with it. But when he stumbles across illegal shipments of enough arms and ammunition to start a war, Ike knows he’s the only person who can stop the catastrophe from occurring—even if it means becoming a counterfeit lawman.

Download or read book The Life and Times of Henry Plummer written by Linda Buxbaum and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-12-12 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guilty or innocent? Historians have devoted much time and effort investigating whether or not Henry Plummer, the sheriff of Bannack, Montana, actually committed the crimes for which he was hanged by vigilantes on a bitter, cold January night in 1864. The question of his innocence has plagued Western historians for fifteen decades. In May of 1993, a posthumous trial was held in Virginia City, Montana, where a Madison County jury consisting of twelve registered voters split the verdict--6-6. The judge declared a mistrial and had Sheriff Plummer been alive, she would have told him, "You are free to go." Henry's life tells the tale of a lawless West and epitomizes many a man's experience in these untamed, violent mining towns of the 1800s where shootouts and duals rule and life is sometimes worth only a handful of gold or the dispute over a lady, proper or fallen. Henry, a well-educated and handsome man, delicate and consumptive, soft-spoken and refined, appears dedicated to the law and yet, is also capable of instantly shooting a man dead. Trouble follows him everywhere. By the time Henry Plummer becomes sheriff in Bannack in 1863, he has killed five men in self-defense and has loved and lost three women. Henry's time spent at the faro tables pans out better than his time spent as a miner or as a lover. The hunger for gold dust brings every manner of men from all corners of the country and beyond to enjoy the easy reaping, and with them come more robberies and murders. Rumors and suspicion become rampant, leaving no one untouched, including Henry Plummer, a man swept along by the tides of his time.

When Secret Service operative Andrew Darlington is brought in to support a US Marshal case involving counterfeiters in rural Indiana, he thinks it's simply the next rung on his climb to the top of his career. But liars can only climb so high--and Andrew is keeping a dangerous secret he doesn't ever want to get out. When he clashes with the criminal family that took over the town of Landkreis and killed the Marshal he was sent to assist, his past life is in danger of being exposed. Widow "Lightning Lu" Thorne has only one goal: escape the clutches of the Thorne family with her son. Her decision to be an informant and testify against the Thornes looked like the perfect answer. Until the Marshal ended up dead. Now the tether keeping her tied to her felonious family is tightening, and a forced marriage to someone else in the Thornes' clutches threatens to kill any hope of escape. Andrew and Lu find themselves on the same team--unwillingly. They each believe the other to be the enemy to their future plans. And even if they could learn to work together, the secrets they hold could shatter all hopes and dreams. Despite the encouragement of the local preacher, they're not even sure God can be trusted--much less other humans.

On the heels of her smashing debut, this second entry in Crystal Caudill's historical series maintains the excitement that readers of Michelle Griep, Liz Tolsma, and Elizabeth Camden will love.

Download or read book Indian Penal Code written by Salim Khan Anmol and published by Sakha Global Books . This book was released on 2020-11-18 with total page 613 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indian Penal Code - New Amendments is a recently launched book of Sakha Global Books (Sakha Books) publication to hold good commandover legal proceedings. Apart from above legislations, there are numerous directions, guidelines and cautions by Supreme Court to protect the personal liberty, human rights and human dignity under article 21 of the Constitution of India. The book discusses the contours of the rule of law in India, the values and aspirations in its evolution, and its meaning as understood by the various institutions, identifying reason as the primary element in the rule of law mechanism. It later examines the institutional, political, and social challenges to the concepts of equality and certainty, through which it evaluates the status of the rule of law in India. This book is an attempt to assimilate basic knowledge from all these sources so as to assist in each stage of criminal proceedings starting with crime investigation, bail, trial and even after the conviction and sentencing of a person. This book contains all the Laws relating to Indian railways within territories of India. It can be used as a bare act set of the laws as well as detailed information on IPCs. Language shapes and reflects how we think about the world. It engages and intrigues us. Our everyday use of language is quite effortless—we are all experts on our native tongues but not in our Legal systems. Despite this, issues of legal status and meaning have long flummoxed the judges on whom we depend for the interpretation of our most fundamental legal rights. Should a judge feel confident in defining common words in the texts without the aid of a linguist? How is the meaning communicated by the text determined? Should the communicative meaning of texts be decisive, or at least influential? To fully engage and probe these questions of interpretation, this volume draws upon a variety of experts from several fields, who collectively examine the interpretation of legal texts. In The Nature of Legal Interpretation, the contributors argue that the meaning of language is crucial to the interpretation of legal texts, such as statutes, constitutions, and contracts. Accordingly, expert analysis of language from linguists, philosophers, and legal scholars should influence how courts interpret legal texts. Offering insightful new interdisciplinary perspectives on originalism and legal interpretation, these essays put forth a significant and provocative discussion of how best to characterize the nature of language in legal texts. Once again we thank you all for purchasing this book and would like to recommend you to read our other books on "Indian law" series published on Amazon and Google Play Books.
