The past has a funny way of catching up with a man. At least, that's what Captain Matthew Horn has found out. It's 1870, and for the thirty-five-year-old ex-Confederate officer, the War Between the States is a distant, but not forgotten, memory. Phantoms from what seem like another world plague his soul, and when he returns to his home after the war, Horn is faced with the stunning realization that life as he knew it before the war is dead to him now. His house has been pillaged, his wife and young child taken prisoner and believed dead-as are his hopes for a bright future. So Horn becomes a man of the mountains, a man hoping for an escape from his demons. When a winter storm suddenly unleashes its fury on the lonely man, he and his stallion, CoChise, find themselves trapped in a blizzard. After nearing death, Horn finally makes his way to the nearest town, only to discover that a wagon train is trapped on the pass-women and children left to suffer and fight to stay alive. Horn quickly gathers a search party and begins to lead them back up the trail. Mary Howard's "The Lone Trail" is a western adventure tale that weaves together the fates of a group of brave settlers, bonding them for life. Matt Horn will need to use all his knowledge and training to make it down The Lone Trail.
"The Lone Trail" by Luke Allan showcases a fan-favorite character. Inspector Barker of the Mounted Police who works together with the delightful little tenderfoot journalist Morton Stamford, who blunders into a drama full of thrills and incident.

Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) was, as T.S. Eliot recognised, a supreme ballad-maker, a storyteller who relished the adventures and characters encountered in the wide world, and a man whose sympathies lay with those whose work and dedication sustained civic and political institutions. With humour, rhythmical skill and a gift for the unforgettable phrase, Kipling's poems have passed into common currency: 'If -', 'Mandalay', 'Gunga Din'... Harry Ricketts includes these in his selection, and many more. He also introduces a less familiar Kipling, lyrical, funny, compassionate, capable of bleak and savage satire. Often seen only as a laureate of empire, Kipling also speaks for the dispossessed and the victims of war. His fingerprints, Ricketts writes, 'are smudged all over twentieth-century literature': he affected Sassoon, Joyce, Auden and Brecht, and he still provides the necessary words at times of crisis.
A veteran Marine and an ex-convict find themselves on opposite sides of the law in this propulsive new thriller from award-nominated suspense master and "damn fine storyteller" Owen Laukkanen (Kirkus Reviews). Could your closest friend be a killer? When a body washes up outside Deception Cove, Washington, Jess Winslow-once a US Marine, now a trainee sheriff's deputy-is assigned to investigate. But when she realizes it's "Bad" Brock Boyd, a hometown celebrity lately fallen from grace, things become complicated. The last person seen with Boyd was her own boyfriend, Mason Burke. An ex-convict and newcomer in town, Mason is one of the only people who can understand Jess's haunting memories of her time in Afghanistan-and her love for Lucy, her devoted service dog. Finding one another in Deception Cove has been the best thing to happen to either of them in years. So Jess knows Mason could never be guilty of murder-doesn't she? As the facts of the case point ever more squarely at Mason, Jess must face that everything she thinks she knows about him might be wrong. A thrilling sequel to Deception Cove, and a heart-pounding adventure all its own, Lone Jack Trail pushes Jess and Mason to a shocking confrontation and will test everything they've come to love and trust in Deception Cove.

One of the hidden jewels of Texas, the Lone Star Hiking Trail is the only long-distance National Recreation Trail in the state. At 128 miles (including loop trails), it is also the state's longest continuously marked and maintained footpath. Located in the famed Big Thicket area in east Texas, the trail is well-suited for both short and long hikes (of up to 10 days), appealing to dayhikers, overnight backpackers and long-distance hikers. The LSHT lies between the major metro centers of Houston-Galveston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin, and San Antonio--home to more than 8 million people just a 2-hour drive from the trail. The author, a Texas native, is an experienced long-distance hiker who has thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail, the Pacific Crest Trail, and many other nationally recognized long-distance trails throughout the U.S. This is the first guidebook to the trail and is officially endorsed and promoted by the Lone Star Hiking Trail Club.
