Book excerpt: A small town cop’s heart is on the line when the woman he loves from afar is in danger in this romantic suspense from a New York Times–bestselling author. Trouble always accompanied the rainy season. Rain and isolation could make folks crazy in these parts. Sheriff Mitch Tanner—the most eligible bachelor in the county—would have his hands full for sure. Bigfoot sightings and sundry strange happenings he could handle . . . but he wasn’t prepared for murder. With a killer on the loose, he’d have to keep a tight grip on the investigation and a close eye on the mounting list of suspects. Unfortunately, the person causing the most trouble to his male senses was none other than the town’s biggest gossip and the one woman he’d do anything to avoid: Charity Jenkins. Sure enough, she’d whittled away at his confirmed-single status with her annoying questions and all-American-girl good looks and had him thinking about something more permanent . . . Except a killer had other plans for Charity.

Download or read book San Bernardino County Sheriff s Department written by M. David DeSoucy and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The largest county in the continental United States has seen its share of colorful pursuits of suspects and fugitives, including the search for the last Native American in the United States to be tracked to his tragic end by a lawman's posse: "Willie Boy" at Ruby Mountain. San Bernardino County also was the setting for the shoot-outs at Baldy Mesa and Lytle Creek. Yet gunplay lore is only one aspect of the epic of the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department. Today the department deploys nearly 5,000 salaried and volunteer employees to protect and serve its 20,186 square miles of deserts, mountains, forests, and increasingly urban areas. This original cow-county sheriff's office went through many developments that are detailed in these vintage photographs-sheriffs' administrations, equipment, investigations, and other exploits-all culled from the department's archives, private collections, the California Room of the San Bernardino Public Library, and the San Bernardino Pioneer Historical Society.

Download or read book The Cumberland Mountain Trilogy Volume 2 The Sheriff of Frozen s Murder Cases written by Jack Justin Turner and published by First Edition Design Pub.. This book was released on 2014-12-11 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sheriff of Frozen's Murder Cases is the second volume in The Cumberland Mountain Trilogy. Sheriff Jake Herald's career was characterized by violence, intemperate outbursts against "Outsiders" (non-Mountaineers), high-handed and perhaps illegal campaign tactics, flights of fancy wherein he extols the beauties of the mountains and the virtues of its inhabitants, incarceration and intimidation of coal camp managers, police and owners, and, some say, inveterate womanizing. He did, however, quite remarkably, find the time to solve the occasional murder case. In this volume, Jake considers running for High Sheriff while being assailed by a series of difficulties, some of them quite bizarre. Violence from a near war in West Virginia between union miners and coal company "detectives" threatens to spill over into Chinoe County, Kentucky. Two bodies are found on the same stretch of railroad track. "Italian Bank Robbers" strike a nearby town, a young school teacher is stalked, and automobiles come to Chinoe with the introduction of a yellow Duesenberg and a Bluebird Overland. The series of murder cases that Jake Herald faces, and the methods he employs, build suspense and create the dramatic tension that propels the novel to its climax, and to an unforgettable resolution that promises a love interest readers are sure to look forward to in the final novel of the Cumberland Mountain Trilogy.

Download or read book The Cumberland Mountain Trilogy Volume 3 The Sheriff of Hell s Murder Case written by Jack Justin Turner and published by First Edition Design Pub.. This book was released on 2014-12-11 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sheriff of Hell's Murder Case is the final novel in Dr. Jack Justin Turner's highly-acclaimed Cumberland Mountain Trilogy. With a mangled arm, and with his long-barreled Luger close at hand, Sheriff Jacob Newton Herald must muster all the cunning and courage that saw him through The Great War to survive the sometimes savage place he calls home. Jake, as he is known by both friend and foe, has been described as a combination of Hamlet and Dirty Harry – but in this last volume Jake exhibits a quite different and endearing personality, when he makes two of the most important decisions of his life. Part murder mystery and part magnificent love story, The Sheriff of Hell's Murder Case again demonstrates Dr. Turner's powerful and insightful explanation of character and locale, in a page-turner that is perhaps unparalleled in modern Appalachian fiction. Turner obviously knows and loves the setting and its inhabitants and puts the lie to the work of a litany of literary carpetbaggers. As one reviewer put it, "Jack Justin Turner's voice rings so true that one might think the author is actually channeling the spirits of his early twentieth century characters. Seldom does a book transport a reader so surely to another place and time." Keywords: Romance, Revenge, Action, History, War, Kentucky, Herald, Fiction, Iron Fist, Mystery, Veteran
