Book excerpt: After Deputy US Marshal Jed Colter captures Charlie Bearsfoot, a dangerous half-breed who's accused of murder, he ferrets out the facts and clears Bearsfoot, leading to an improbable alliance between them. Back in Laramie, Colter learns of presidential nominee General Ulysses S. Grant's impending visit. A plot to assassinate Grant is real. Colter's challenge? Find out who's behind it -- and stop them. Facing the biggest task of his career, Colter enlists the help of Bearsfoot, a walking arsenal, and ex-sheriff Luke Radison, a good man to have around when trouble hits. They tenaciously pursue every lead: a body with no identification; a missing horse; a man posing as a US Marshal; and Henry Jackson, the mysterious, battle-scarred stranger who haunts the thoughts of Colter and his betrothed, Ellen Wellsley. Finding the dead man's horse just may be the answer to this quandary. But for Colter and his crew, time is quickly running out.

Book excerpt: "His horse plodded along laboriously up the steep grade, snorting now and then with the effort, and his narrowed blue-gray eyes studied this high country--mountains jumbled together in broken, uneven folds with the rock jutting bare and jagged from their sides. Almost at the top of the grade, Tully pulled up and sat looking back down the trail. There was no movement. Tully hadn't expected to see anything, but he would very much have liked to. For someone had been following him for the last three or four hours. Below him, his horse stamped and snorted in protest. And then a voice, directly behind him, said softly: "I figured you'd hole up about here." Tully sat rigid, a trickle of sweat running down clammily across his cheek. "That's right," eased the voice. "That's the way to act. Just sit nice and quiet. And now you can slide that carbine a mite forward."--Back cover.

Book excerpt: The third novel starring Montana's favorite fly fisherman-cum-detective Sean Stranahan, for fans of Craig Johnson and C. J. Box. Cold Hearted River, the sixth in the series, is forthcoming from Viking. Wolves howl as a riderless horse returns at sunset to the Culpepper Dude Ranch in the Madison Valley. The missing woman, Nanika Martinelli, is better known as the Fly Fishing Venus, a red-haired river guide who lures clients the way dry flies draw trout. As Sheriff Martha Ettinger follows hoof tracks in the snow, she finds one of the men who has fallen under the temptress’s spell impaled on the antler tine of a giant bull elk, a kill that’s been claimed by a wolf pack. An accident? If not, is the killer human or animal? With painter, fly fisherman, and sometimes private detective Sean Stranahan’s help, Ettinger will follow clues that point to an animal rights group called the Clan of the Three-Clawed Wolf and to their svengali master, whose eyes blaze with pagan fire. In their most dangerous adventure yet, Stranahan and Ettinger find themselves in the crossfire of wolf lovers, wolf haters, and a sister bent on revenge, and on the trail of an alpha male gone terribly wrong.

On their first expeditions--led by incompetent officers and accompanied by the robust, dauntless whore known as the Great Western--they will face death at the hands of the cunning Comanche war chief Buffalo Hump and the silent Apache Gomez.

He is running out of time. An ancient evil sealed beneath the mountains is about to break free, an evil that is older than humanity, older than the Fade, older even than the gods--and it will not stop until the entire world is drowned in blood..."--
